I think at this stage we have sufficient consensus about this, so I would therefore propose that, for version 1 of the Geolocation API specification, we define location in terms of spatial coordinates. Also note that geo URIs [1] can be trivially built from a Position object. Defining position in other ways, including defining other type of URI schemes (e.g. as proposed in [2]) should be out of scope for this specification.
