Yes. Coordination is a good thing. :-)

We have a kcm module in KDE SC 4.4 where you can configure the different service providers, authentication, register, enable/disable etc.

At the moment this is only used for Attica. Attica is the libary which handles the open collaboration services calls for the SocialDesktop and GHNS.

We can extend this kcm of course to also handle other "identities" for services like Twitter, Facebook, XMMP and others but this is not done at the moment.
