The GPS architecture on the N900 consists of a low-level library (liblas) that talks to the cellular modem and GPS via libisi and ISI packets, a daemon (location-daemon) that talks to liblas and handles GPS, a daemon (location-proxy) that handles talking to the SUPL server and a library (liblocation) that talks to location-daemon and location-proxy over dbus (and may do other things too)

The proposal I have for porting the GPS stack to new hardware (i.e. anything that doesn't have the same GPS hardware/setup as the N900 does) is as follows:

# We take liblas, location-daemon, location-proxy, liblocation and any other parts of the GPS system that I forget to mention above and identify anything they do that talks to the outside world (e.g. do they talk to anything via dbus, do they access/set gconf keys, do they read/write/access disk files, whatever)
