A gpsd client is something that connects to a gpsd server in order to RECEIVE/CONSUME location data. In the case of Android, that would imply a HAL, which would allow Android to become a client of gpsd. This is a feeder application, not a gpsd client. Strictly speaking, gpsd becomes a CLIENT of THIS.

Gpsd now includes an Android HAL, as well as a demo client written in C.

I'm willing to change the name if you have a good alternative. GPSd feeder? GPSd forwarder? I'll give it some thought too.

feeder, forwarder, backend, anything of that sort would be suitable.

I'm changing the name to GPSd Forwarder next time I do a release.
