using XMPP for user location

Hi,

I want to create an application for Android that enables me to get the geolocation of a user. This has to be made as a client-server app and for the server side I'm using OpenFire. For getting the user's location I would have to use XEP-0080, right? And SmackAPI also? I'm completely new to XMPP and Smack, so if anyone could get me a few pointers or maybe examples or any kind of documentation about this I'd be very grateful.

Thanks in advance for any help.

A: 

I believe this is close to what you are trying to accomplish.

thnx for this link, I've seen it and am planning to use it, but do you have any complete example of using XMPP extensions in Java programs, because like I said, I'm completely new to this area.thnx again for help

I just need a few clues on what to do first. Like I said, I'm a complete noob in this area. Do I have to configure my Openfire server first (create new plug-in) for this kind of stuff or does it support it by default or do I simply have to develop Android app that does what it does. This is for my thesis, so it's kindda important. Thanks in advance

Does Openfire support XEP-0800

As much as I know I does not, but I think it is possible to create a plug-in for it, right?
