You apparently kept the promise to fix the server (the "promise" was
from the reject text which I don't get now).  That "I'm broken but we
promise to fix it" message was there a long time, long enough to
consider the promise as broken as the server.  A more specific message
while you were fixing it explaining that you knew about it would have
helped.

I am able to connect and sync files.

However as I pointed out there was NO logs, no debug information, no way
to find out what was causing the problem, so having it work apparently
at random just like it failed isn't helpful.  I still don't know what
happened, if something like it happens again will it be something on my
end or yours, or something else entirely.

It also appears you require an insecure firefox to do the initial
authentication (My extensions turn off the "allow bouncing anywhere else
on the net via javascript or http redirects" feature which I had to
bypass for your site).  I don't see that mentioned anywhere near the top
or in the FAQ which leads to more confusion - applets are normally self-
contained and this one is not.  That still needs to be fixed, even if it
just puts up a dialog saying "Firefox will start now and you need to
login via launchpad using openID" even if you have already created an
account and the rest works.

With it taking over the browser (without any warning or explanation),
your applet looks like typical Microsoft Windows malware doing something
to my computer or browser.

So, yes, the server is fixed.  Ubuntu One works for now, but the side
(and I apologize for the slightly snide) comments still apply.
Especially with something completely new, if you are going to do unusual
things, or things might not work, it helps to know specifically what it
is trying to do when it fails somewhere in the chain, or if you have
confirmed server problems, put something on the front page saying so
instead of having me and whomever else spend hours trying futile things.
