32 <title>Geographical position not published</title>
35 If your contacts cannot see your location, <app>Empathy</app> might not be able
36 to discover with a good margin of precision your geographical position.
39 In this case, your position will not be published, but you are still able to
40 see the location of your contacts.
43 If you want to publish your geographical position, you can try to use an
44 external device such as a GPS.
48 <p>In order to publish your geographical location, your Jabber server
49 needs to support the Personal Eventing Protocal (PEP). A list of
50 <link href="http://coccinella.im/servers/servers_by_pubsub_pep.html">servers
51 which support PEP</link> is maintained online. Google Talk
52 does not support this feature at this time.</p>
