[Bug 1153731] Re: [FFe] Ubuntu One sing in or up or skip plugin

[Dmitrijs Ledkovs]

The delays were caused by combination of:
- scheduling U1 SSO downtime for server API upgrades (it was postponed twice, due to uptime requirements for events)
- finalising & deploying legal notices, that need to be available if somebody is registering a new account
- delayed final visual design and assets
- vUDS preperation and delivery, interrupting the work of people involved in all of the above

I'd like to merge it, with a feature flag, disabled by default. Get the
images with it, extensively test against one.ubuntu.com, and then
propose to switch the default on. Thus to minimise any potential
disruptions in any of the configurations.

But I would like an FFe pre-approval first, before getting the images.

Once it's possible to test with real images, the FFe can be finally decided w.r.t. enabling this feature by default in ubiquity-gtk.
As it is hard to asses the full impact of this feature without daily images readily available for testing and evaluation.

At the moment there is only code for ubiquity-gtk, normal installation
(no oem config).

Title:
  [FFe] Ubuntu One sing in or up or skip plugin

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “ubiquity” source package in Raring:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm requesting FFe to add Ubuntu One sing in, up or skip, plugin to ubiquity.
  It does not add any additional dependencies, instead it allows to sign in or up for Ubuntu One directly from the installer.
  On the technical side of things it, it authenticates and retrieves a token which is stored in the newly created user account's keyring.

  It adds extra pages, visual assets and translatable strings to the
  installer.

  The code is almost complete in lp:~xnox/ubiquity/main_u1 but is pending an U1 deployment and a few fix ups before merging.
  Overall, I am confident in landing this right after beta1 block is lifted.

  Further testing will be required once it lands on the images.
