Description

User in 1682740-zen has found that our geolocation feature runs into the duplicate namespace attribute issue (mentioned here: #10061) when JP is active at the same time as `wordpress-geo-mashup`. Their corresponding GitHub issue is here:

https://github.com/cyberhobo/wordpress-geo-mashup/issues/829

Per @jeherve in Slack:

> We could check for a list of plugins that already do that before we enable our feature

Research direction

Start by reading issue #10061 and the linked wordpress-geo-mashup issue #829 to understand the duplicate namespace attribute conflict. Then locate Jetpack's geolocation feature and determine how compatibility with an active wordpress-geo-mashup installation should be handled; done means the conflict no longer occurs when both plugins are active.
