Either.

I object to HTTP because there is no RFC I can reference that describes an
HTTP based geopriv using protocol.  I prefer SIP/SIPS/PRES because I can.

I don't think sip-location-conveyance should define an HTTP based geopriv
using protocol.

I don't object to a separate document that defines one.  I expect to see the
L7 protocol do that, for example.
