Actually, no. The point I was making was that Chris Adams, who I'm unfairly singling out here and mean absolutely no malice, is a Jolla employee/contractor whose key area is the Buteo Sync framework that is the back end for CalDAV/CardDAV.

Expanding it to add DropBox and OneDrive is fine by me but FFS fix the existing protocols first.

Also, I would imagine that if Jolla had opened up the accounts API and UI by now somebody else would have written a DropBox, OneDrive, WhatsApp, SIP, EverNote, InstaGram, Flickr, Spotify or whatever plugin already. Why isn't this available in Sailfish 2.0?
