Do either of you implement the crazy <error/><BR>> element with measurements in arc minutes? We're deprecating that in<BR>> favor of an <accuracy/> element with measurements in meters. See here:<BR><BR>
Coccinella doesn't have the capability of obtaining geolocation from any GPS/location system and relies on the user typing their latitude/longitude into the UI so they don't have the concept of accuracy.<BR>
<BR>
imov uses GPS or celltower/wifi positioning data so it does have accuracy information, but it is expressed in meters not arc minutes. Right now the error element isn't being used at all though.<BR>
<BR>
I think it is safe to eliminate it! <BR>
