-------------------------------
hi Joe
I am Agree by Romain
if Android 2.3+ has had Geolocation in the browser，and it's always worked
better than our geolocation
well...
delete the Geolocation plugin not only "not increase" the phonegap Overall
performance but also will cause the old device (maybe 4.0- or 4.0 - 4.1) have
no geolocation Ability
just look at this in PGB with plugin 0.3.7，but "yiming" have no other reply

> Deprecate Android Geolocation plugin
> -------------------------------------

> Key: CB-5977
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5977
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Android, Plugin Geolocation
> Reporter: Mike Billau
> Assignee: Joe Bowser
> Fix For: 3.5.0
>
>
> Lets deprecate the Geolocation plugin on Android since the Web Geolocation
> works just as well as our implementation. See
> http://markmail.org/message/ketdgrzm2dcpxfo2 for further discussion.
> We need to keep the config.xml in order to continue adding the location
> permissions. We should zero out the rest of the code since it shouldn't be
> used.
