Hi,

Please see the below email from Zeeshan Ali of Gnome and GeoClue who is
organising a Location hackfest in London in May/June time-frame to get
Gnome, KDE, Qt, Mozilla, Jolla and others working together on improving
location services on the Linux desktop.  If anyone is interested in
attending, in particular to work on porting Qt from GeoClue1 to GeoClue2,
addressing any missing features in GeoClue2, or to work on cool new desktop
features using location, then please contact him directly or add your
details to the wiki.

Cheers!

John.

Hi everyone,

I'm planning a combined hackfest in the spirit of cooperation between
our projects to ensure we all have a stable, well-documented and free
location infrastructure for both desktops and mobile devices:

https://wiki.gnome.org/Hackfests/Location2014

If you folks (or others from your projects) can participate, please
add your names on the list and propose date and duration for the
event. I'm hoping to organise it mid/late May or sometime in June.

Once I know who can join, I can contact our board for making it
official and organising the event.

Aaaron, From the changelog on geoclue rpm on my Jolla phone, I
gathered you are the person to contact about this in your company but
if that is not the case, kindly forward this mail to the right person.
