Re: GNOME techonologies used by Mozilla

["Zeeshan Ali (Khattak)" <zeeshanak gnome org>]

Hi Pranav,

I'm guessing I'm way too late for this round but if Mozilla will be
doing another round of this in future, I would like to point to a
task:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1063572

Since Geoclue2 relies heavily on Mozilla Location Services on most
computers out there (where they lack a 3G hardware), I think Firefox
relying on Geoclue on Linux machines, would turn this win situation
into a win-win one. :)
