                      Slava, would you mind to check out which licensing
                      terms prevent QtLocation specifically? Or maybe
                      someone else knows specifics? Is there any hope
                      that the situation would change in future?<br>
                      <br>
                      I wonder whether all platforms are hit by it or
                      whether Ubuntu Touch complies with the new terms
                      and, as a result, has an advantage when compared
                      to SFOS in this case.<br>
