This is a bit like Bob's rfid-aprs concept, but with bluetooth phones
which users already carry around:
BPRS, Bluetooth Position Reporting System, is a program which can announce
the presence of amateur radio operators at a certain location (club
station, hamfest, swap meet) on the APRS-IS based on the presence of their
Bluetooth enabled devices.

Runs on Linux, install instructions are for Ubuntu/Debian.
Has been in use for quite a while at a couple of locations, appears to
work.
