[Klug-general] Ubuntu One Shutting Down!

[Kevin Groves]

Well, local install and sync went well, pushed to my VPS and tried the 
Android app. It appears the Android app is seriously broken which pretty 
much kills any reason to sync files between my phone and laptop.

People are reporting that it forgets the account settings and I'm 
getting that as well. A pain. And it seems to only recognise photos 
taken by the default camera app for auto upload and no folder upload 
config either. Pretty bad when compared to U1 app.

I think I will make my own sync.
