A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Synthetic Location Information in the Domain Name System
Author(s) : C. de Launois
Filename : draft-de-launois-dnsext-sloc-rr-00.txt
Pages : 23
Date : 2005-7-8
This memo defines a new Resource Record (RR) for the Domain Name
System (DNS), for experimental purposes. It describes a mechanism to
allow the DNS to carry synthetic coordinates about hosts, networks,
and subnets. The new resource record, called SLOC, can express
synthetic locations in different coordinate spaces.
This draft defines the format of the new SLOC RR for the DNS, and
reserves a corresponding DNS type mnemonic (SLOC) and numerical code
(TBD).

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-de-launois-dnsext-sloc-rr-00.txt".
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.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
