One last minute thing that just came up in #gnome-design was the default setting for location services -- whether to let apps find out user's current location by default or not.
There's a high chance that the default is going to be flipped from disabled to enabled in upstream for GNOME 3.14 -- might be worth doing the same in Fedora as well and making sure we get a freeze exception so that the change makes it to the base repo and to the installer media.
I'm not 100% sure, but I believe we defaulted to enabled in F20.
Zeeshan and Allan (BCC'd), if you guys could come to the meeting in 1h in #fedora-meeting, it would be great. Thanks!

My recollection is that the whole system was disabled (or didn't work) in F20. I seem to recall talking to mclasen about it at some point, perhaps in the context of a simple user question.
What are the downsides here? Risk? Any privacy issues?

With my Android phone, I'm notified when apps might use this permission, and can get a report of which apps did. With CyanogenMod, one can switch this on or off per-app. I know that this was a design goal of GeoClue, but I don't see any interface beyond a big on/off switch under Privacy. Is there anything like that in GNOME currently or in planning? I looked at https://wiki.gnome.org/Design/OS/Location but don't see anything.

No, we didn't change the default, and I don't think we should change the default.

Wrongly so, yes.

If we enable it again, it would be through a first time use dialogue.
