A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Geographic Location/Privacy Working Group of the IETF.

        Title : Geopriv requirements

Location-based services, navigation applications, emergency services,
management of equipment in the field, and other location-dependent
services need geographic location information about a target (user,
resource or other entity). There is a need to securely gather and
transfer location information for location services, protecting the
privacy of the individuals involved.
This document describes the requirements for the geopriv Location
Object (used to transfer location data and perhaps some other
information) and for further IETF protocols that use this Location
Object as an embedded protocol. We focus on authorization, integrity
and privacy requirements.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
        MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
        feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
        command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
        a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
        exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
        "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
        up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
        how to manipulate these messages.

implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
