Comment:

 Thank you for your wishlist item. We are well
 [http://zecke.blogspot.com/2008/03/qtwebkit-illume-and-diversity.html
 aware] of GeoClue. If you think FSO should consider GeoClue please file a
 wishlist item in their bugtracker as well.

 In case you are interested. There is a w3c.org draft for Geolocation,
 WebKit has a implementation and there are
 [https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22022 patches] in the bugtracker
 to add a Geoclue implementation for WebKit/gtk+.

 If you want to help you can add Geoclue to OpenEmbedded, so that Openmoko
 can make use of it.

 According to our bug filing policy, which you should have read, I'm
 removing milestones and components.
