I don't see why one user would not want to reveal his location, because
he already send it regularly, although less precisely, to his telco
because that's how GSM works. AFAIK, telcos are then free to use this
information commercialy and forced to give all details to the cops when
asked to,

Especially, an implementation of the Pierre protocol would be
interesting. In essence, using the protocol, two people can
reveal each others location but only when they are

At the moment the telcos don't seem to be making their subscribers' locations

I needed it, because I don't trust everybody to be nice. Location-based

I was looking for a project to start practicing openMoko, and was
willing to learn how GPS receivers work (never used one). Your project
fits perfectly.

This sounds pretty cool. I've always thinking on a service that could let
anyone provide means to upload their position (without being tied to any
personal records) and be able to see through the time the evolution of the
flows of population (dynamic of fluids).
Could be amazing to see
it could interface with google maps, http://wikimapia.org/ or have some
custome service, as a basis we could use

Hi all,
I was wondering of any of the Gtk gurus hanging out here could do
me a little favour. I have this idea that's haunting me in my
sleep, but I don't have the time to implement it. It should be
really easy to do, though.
The idea is to have a GPS tracker/mapper that uses a very simple
GUI

The current location interface should probably be generic, e.g.,
reading x-meters, y-meters, seconds messages from a Unix domain
socket. We can then feed it with fake test data and/or slap on a
converter from NMEA.
Why not just use NMEA

Sure. Just wanted to skip the math and modularize the thing.
