There are interested peers in having glib-free WebKit and last week we managed to build that using CURL instead of libsoup. I hope you understand my point, this will benefit EFL overall, as people can use the geolocation from their own C/EFL apps.

Hello Gustavo,
Ok, I understand what your point. I will consider how to support geolocation according to your guys comments. I will update my suggesstions or new patch in here again. Thank you. :)
