A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Emergency Call Information in the Domain Name System
Author(s) : B. Rosen
Filename : draft-rosen-dns-sos-03.txt
Pages : 22
Date : 2005-10-26
Location of a caller is essential to processing an emergency call.
Location is needed to correctly route the call, and to correctly
dispatch help to the right place. Location can be specified in
geographic (latitude, longitude) or civic (country, province,
locality) forms. This document proposes a DNS-based mechanism to
lookup emergency calling URIs and related emergency information from
a known civic location in a specific form. Other companion documents
propose a non DNS-based approach to determine civic location from
geographic location, and describe how to discover a civic location in
the appropriate local form(s) for this application.

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.
