I do! Of course I respect your decisions. I am just trying to explain my
point of view to help you in the development task. Of course I appreciate
a lot all you have done and all you are trying to do. If not I would not
be here :-)

For me the capability to manage your privacy is not an extra thing. It
can't be.

I understand that from a tech point of view, to ask to the browser if it
wants to give you the IP address is a great feature, but I also think that
from other points of view it must be available another more effective way
to control a private info like the user location.

I have checked the geolocation feature from the third location I use to
stay (with FireFox 3.0.16 over Ubuntu with and without Google Gears) and
it works as spected (Vitoria with Google Gears and another place at 140 Km
from me without Google Gears). I comment this just to confirm what you
already know, that Google Gears works with FF 3.0.

Cheers,

Txopi.
