RE: [Geopriv] Consensus call on <provided-by>

Allison,

I favor Andy's proposal for an XML namespace.
See related contributions to discussion from NENA.

A revision to the proposed XML from NENA to support it is coming soon, to
revise 24x7 contact number to a tel.uri, and possibly to rename the schema
to more closely align it with the data element being defined. (Thought I
sent the tel.uri revision Monday, but it's not on the email thread so I
guess I didn't. Sorry.)

Subject: [Geopriv] Consensus call on <provided-by>

We're a ways past the end of the wglc on pidf-lo, so we'd like to call
consensus on this discussion of <provided-by> and move pidf-lo forward.

The original text from James and company added the <provided-by> element
alone. It offered a discussion of the risks and privacy concerns related to
the URI following this element. Ted Hardie, as our Area Director, noted
that a general URI here would continue to be unacceptable, because of the
potential for unresolvable forms or even harmful forms.

Following discussion on the list, Andy proposed adding an XML namespace for
<provided-by>. Under an XML namespace design, the objections to the general
URI are gone.

Could people send in their thoughts and comments on the XML namespace
proposal for <provided-by>? Please send in thoughts if you are in support
of it, as well as if you have issues with it. If you have issues with it,
what would work in its place, since a general URI will not meet community
review standards, as our AD has told us?

Allison
