Hi Adrien,

I'll get the process of provisioning a new API key for you started.

Right now, the best way to contribute back to MLS is the MozStumbler.  We 
intend on cleaning up and extracting the stumbling library from MozStumbler as 
a reusable library on Android, but I don't think that helps you much with 
haiku.

Subject: API key request for Haiku

Hello there,

I'm trying to implement HTML5 geolocation in WebPositive, the web
browser for the Haiku operating system (www.haiku-os.org). I would like
to use Mozilla Location Services for this.

I have read on the MLS website that we should be a "friendly" opensource
and/or non-commercial project (I think we are) and that we should
contribute to the MLS project in some way in exchange of the access to
the database.

I don't know which kind of contribution we can bring yet. Our OS target
desktop computers which don't usually have a builtin GPS, so we can't
get our userbase to contribute data in an automated way like Firefox
Mobile does. However we could still advertise our use of MLS and
encourage our users to contribute to the database using MozStumbler and
other applications. Are there other ways to contribute?

Thanks for considering our application,
