Hi,
currently, localnet only provides addresses.
I'd like to have something similar (a simple config file, and an api to modify 
it from other softwares) for positions.

So, I have a few questions about it:

first, are you interested in including that in geoclue code ?
If so, I'll try to make a clean patch; otherwise, I can just make something 
quick and dirty that works for me.

then, do you think that should be a standalone provider, or do you think it's 
better to extend localnet ?

If it's better to extend localnet, how to store the position information ?
If I use another file, what filename should I use ?
If I use the same file, mac addresses are the group names of mac addresses, so 
I don't think I can have different groups for positions and addresses.

If I put all the informations (positions and addresses) in the same groups, 
the property name "accuracy" will conflict.

So, what do you think is best ?


regards
arno
