As long as there's a way to remove it, since I am not a member of either Facebook or Foursquare. If it can't be removed I oppose its inclusion - we're getting dangerously close to what Microsoft did with Internet Explorer in Windows 95.

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).
If we don't have Maps installed, there's a Foursquare provider in GOA that does nothing out of the box (ditto for the check-in toggle for Facebook, FWIW, but at least it can also do Photos). -- desktop mailing list desktop@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
