Alberto - I'm pushing branches that enable panels in both control centers, that way we can land changes at any time and no users will have a control center with bits missing.
It doesn't look easy to do this for gnome-control-center-signon since the package contains a lot of common files. We might have to wait for the other components to be ready, and upload the gnome-control-center- signon at the same time we add unity-control-center to the seed. We can make gnome-control-center signon depend the version of u-c-c that is uploaded at that time. Also, I talked to the Ubuntu GNOME team about what they plan to do with unity-control-center. They said that it was desirable to be able to access the online accounts in GNOME for the apps that need it. Will anything show in g-c-c once we move to u-c-c? Do you care about this use-case as an upstream? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-datetime in Ubuntu.

We've made a lot of changes appropriate for Ubuntu and Unity (61 patches) which makes it hard to maintain and creates a conflict for Ubuntu GNOME to use the control center. Unity 7 will be replaced by Unity 8 in the future which has a new settings interface. So we can continue to remain on the current version of GNOME Control Center but allow Ubuntu GNOME to continue to update we will create a new project lp:unity-control-center which is a copy of GNOME Control Center 3.6 but with appropriate renaming so both can be installed. A number of packages that refer to gnome-control-center need to be updated to refer to unity-control-center (see bug tasks).
