Hi,
As you may have already heard from me: I have been working on the Open
Collaboration Services account plugin for Harmattan. I will publish
the results as soon as I get something work.
I am just having a question in general independently from this
Harmattan task about the authentication: Would it be possible and
sensible to get the oauth authentication method supported ? If you
think it is okay, we could probably already put it into the 1.6 draft
instead of just into the new 2.X version ? You can then grant an
application access to your account through a website, revoke if
needed, and so forth.
Plain password and OpenID are documented here, but no oauth mentioning:

Thank you in advance!
Best Regards,
