Throughout last year, as we invested heavily in our new data sync infrastructure [1], we gradually had to turn off services that were reliant on the old infrastructure and providing little value to our users. Our Notes service was one of these, so last year we removed Notes from the Ubuntu One web UI.
As part of that ongoing strategy to constantly make sure we are spending our time on the right things, we’ll continue to improve our services during 2013. One of these updates, an upcoming database change, will impact how we currently sync Tomboy Notes. By the end of February 2013 we will cease syncing Tomboy Notes to U1, meaning U1 won’t transfer your notes between computers. Those of you still using U1 to sync your notes will need to stop relying on the service to sync or restore notes after new installations. We realize syncing notes to Ubuntu One was a nice feature for a small set of people, even so, we are contacting the Tomboy developers to help them support our new APIs which utilizes our new U1DB data sync service. We are sorry for any inconvenience this causes and if you have any questions please contact us [2]. -- Originally posted at: http://voices.canonical.com/ubuntuone/2013/02/04/notification-about-notes/ [1] http://voices.canonical.com/ubuntuone/2011/12/22/u1db-technical-preview-release-tell-us-what-you-think/ [2] https://one.ubuntu.com/help/contact _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuone-users Post to : ubuntuone-users@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuone-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
