Perhaps, but I've not had a luck with Diversity (other than a fix, which
seems to work fine):

1. No project page for Diversity that I can find

2. What's with Splinter?

3. When I lose GPS lock, pages don't load properly

4. Configuration / Preferences?  TangoGPS seems to have a lot more
options for things. 

If you have a ref for a project page, that would probably answer most of
my questions.
