Re: [Geopriv] teasing apart: http as a GEOPRIV using protocol

Hi Andy,

if we talk about location-by-reference then I think all solutions need 
more specification work.

If we talk about end host adding a reference then we need to have a 
story about the source of the reference. This is subject to the current 
Geopriv-L7 DT work that is not yet finished.

If we are talking about the case where the SIP proxy adds a reference 
(no matter what type of reference it is) then also further work is needed.

I think we should develop an HTTP based solution since it is very simple.

Btw, I am not sure that the name 'using protocol' is actually 
appropriate in this case. We haven't used the term using protocol for 
the Geopriv L7 work either. Terminology is hell in this area.

Ciao
Hannes
