Comment 23 for bug 365242

The fact that symlinks are not supported needs to be put in the details of the ubuntu one webpage because it is a massive limitation (The first thing I thought when I read about Ubuntu One was symlinking my websites, music, and pictures)

Without symlinks, it is completely worthless to anyone that does not want to maintain two separate directories, or move things around alot.

As a web developer, I do not want to have to copy my live directories to /home/Ubuntu One every time I make a change....

Why not just add a checkbox called "Follow Symlinks"?

Im not moving 40+ gigs of data to the ubuntu one folder, and making all my other programs play nicely. Ubuntu One must play nicely, or I won't "Pay" nicely ;) next month and thats all there is to it.
