Lady Heather can now work with GPSD...  it is one of the simpler "receivers" that it works with.  It took about 500 lines of code (about the same as NMEA)  to interface GPSD to Lady Heather.  Most receivers with binary messages take around 1000 lines,  but they usually support more features.   Parsing the GPSD JSON formatted messages is quite a bit more complex than NMEA if you want to do it "properly".  Lady Heather uses a bit of a hack to simplify things quite a bit.
