<p>
Gypsy is a GPS multiplexer daemon for allowing multiple location-aware
programs to receive data from the same GPS device. Gypsy was designed for
all manner of systems from the high end desktops and laptops, right down
to low power handheld systems and mobile phones.
</p>
<p>
Applications talk to the Gypsy daemon over DBus, which handles all
communication with the GPS device. It parses the data from the GPS, and
emits DBus signals when data has changed.
