Linux and GPS (linux-gps.org). A new V8d project.
Sunday, October 28th, 2007I will be working on a new V8d Org project, Linux GPS. This is a project designed to build an almost complete compatibility list with full instructions how to get all the devices working with your chosen distribution. Membership and readership will be free.
We will be using a mixture of a wiki for the main information and forums for threaded conversations about what’s going on. Lee is working on the design of this site at the moment, the process simply is to pick two pieces of standard software to be integrated together with the desired result.
We will also be providing a list of software which uses GPS and the role it takes, if we see any major gap in the software packages then we will attempt to breach this gap to provide a complete experience for the Linux user. For those interested I do intend to support and involve the OSM (OpenStreetMap) community and their work in both the software and the information.
