Comment(by micha):

 Replying to [comment:7 hamish]:
 > Hi,

 > I didn't try a garmin GPS or gpsbabel, but fwiw I've tried 7.0rc2 with a
 profilic + bu343 sirfIII usb gps puck and it worked ok with: gpsd's xgps,
 opencpn, gpsdrive, viking, josm livegps plugin, and gtkterm (not on the
 disk after all).

 Good news.
 It's academic now, since there's no time for any changes. But after 7.0
 comes out, I do some more testing with gpsbabel and gpsd. Hopefully we can
 get this smoothed out for the next release.
