Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-2930:
----------------------------------------

Erwan,

Yes we already discussed about that during August 2008. But it's not reliable. 
Moreover, in OFBiz we decided to not rely on a specific API. Yahoo, etc.. As 
it's designed and currently coded not only Gogole can be used. Anyway, AFAIK, 
for the moment, none are sufficiently reliable for this feature in OFBiz.

Nevertheless, before closing this issue with a "later", I think it would be 
good to discuss about it on the dev ML. BTW, this is one of the Apache OFBiz 
recommend best practice. Did you read the section "When to create a Jira issue" 
at http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Contributors+Best+Practices ?

Thanks

> the geolocalisation is only working for parties who have a GeoPoint. With the 
> google api, we can also give an address instead of coordinates, and then 
> locate the party on the screen. this patch add this functionality, and then 
> we can locate the parties if they have an address.
