he did clarify; and even said which part is optional.

We're putting the final touches on the server side of
https://one.ubuntu.com and by the time Ubuntu 9.10 is released on
October 29th every single Ubuntu user will have an address book stored
in CouchDB that replicates with one.ubuntu.com, and Tomboy notes that
are replicated via a web API at the application but then stored in
CouchDB and carried along in the CouchDB replication that we have set
up. Optionally they can also store all their Firefox bookmarks in
CouchDB and have those replicated as well

Using Ubuntu One is optional (the applet doesn't seem to be launched by
default, and you need to login on launchpad for it to be active, ...).
