Sure, but given the privacy and open source nature of Ubuntu, I would hope that the most well known open source cloud service that anybody can deploy on their own servers (or use an existing service) would be a good service to include support for. I'd rather the list of supported services was not solely proprietary services with very limited privacy protection. > > I'd like to do the same on the phone, the code is Javascript, so I > > should be able to reuse it mostly unchanged. > > I think we need a more generic system here, the notes app shouldn't have > to know what ownCloud (or any other service, for that matter) is.

Perhaps, it's just that the ownCloud notes app has an API to be able to modify/add/delete notes individually, rather than needing to sync and merge an entire file all the time. This makes it trivially inexpensive to commit changes to the server immediately. The Reminders app already appears to be implemented as an exclusively Evernote service, so it wouldn't be any worse than that. > The app, if realized that the account type is not > available, could even link to the store to point directly at the > required package. For something like the notes app, it could simply hide/show or enable/disable the sync settings depending on whether there is a service configured or not.
