Hey,
Allan and I would like to include gnome-maps in the default
Workstation installation in Fedora 22. It is a nice little core GNOME
application (like Clocks and Weather) that has come a long way. In
GNOME 3.16 (ie. Fedora 22), it has Foursquare and Facebook
integration for check-ins.
Having the application in the default installation would let us turn
on the the Foursquare provider in gnome-online-accounts. Otherwise,
users will be looking at an option that they can't use out of the box,
which is bad.
Nothing against adding the app per-se but the rationale seems a bit
troublesome.
Perhaps the solution here is to allow external GOA providers and make
such provider a dependency of the maps app?
Going further, I fail to see how foursquare or maps itself brings value
to the default install (just to clarify, I'm not assuming it doesn't, I
just don't see it myself).
Thanks,
Debarshi
