Does anyone know of any P2P folk that have worked toward a pure
peer differential GPS?  There's a bunch of stuff on openp2p.com,
but it's a lot to wade through.  Thought I would check with
the local folks before proceeding.

The idea would be for the peers to figure out where they
were relative to other relatively nearby peers with high
accuracy.  Absolute positioning would not be a primary
requirement.  Assume each peer would have a very good clock
and some sort of radio peer routing.  I can find references
to P2P using GPS, but not forming the GPS itself.

The application I'm thinking of would be out of town.

Way out of town.
