Thanks Louis for the information about extending the GeoClue functionality

combine it to a single project. Can you tell me the prerequisites /
technologies I should be aware of as the original GeoClue project demands C
and DBus knowledge only.

Also I would urge Jussi Kukkonen and other GeoClue developers to kindly
consider the above.
