Details

This is follow-up bug for FxOS Geo Stumbling.
In this bug, we would like to complete the following items.
1. Refactoring to a high layer. (a function such as nsGeolocationService::geostumble(nsGeoPosition))
2. Upload Stumble as gzip format
3. Creating an XPCOM component to replace most of UploadStumbleRunnable::Run
Depends on: 1154435
Blocks: 1199395
> 2. Upload Stumble as gzip format

I created bug 1199395 for this item
> 3. Creating an XPCOM component to replace most of UploadStumbleRunnable::Run

Josh made the valid point that XHR in JS is cleaner/simpler code. 
When you add js + idl file + manifest file + mozbuild changes, I think the handful of lines of cpp code to do this becomes about the same number of lines in this approach. I am not sure this is needed because this is such a small piece.

Agree.
Josh, what do you think?

Yeah, I think there are better ways we can use our time than doing the JS rewrite.

I don't think we are going to work on this anymore. Closing.
