Hi, all

While looking at the current state of GeoClue I ran into the
python-geoclue module that is a result of Getting Things GNOME GSoC
2009 project:

http://live.gnome.org/gtg/soc/python_geoclue
Docs: http://www.paulocabido.com/soc/python-geoclue/docs/

Seems to work reasonably well with geoclue 0.11.1 that ships with Ubuntu Karmic:

  import Geoclue
  location = Geoclue.DiscoverLocation()
  location.init()
  location.set_position_provider("Plazes")
  position = location.get_location_info()
  print location.reverse_position(position['latitude'],
position['longitude'], 4)

I wonder, should we try to ensure distros shipping GeoClue also ship
this library?
