A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Geographic extensions for HTTP transactions
Author(s) : A. Daviel, et al.
Filename : draft-daviel-http-geo-header-05.txt
Pages : 12
Date : 2007-12-07
This memo describes a method of adding simple geographic position or
region information to HTTP transactions using extension headers. It
allows location-based services on the World Wide Web, without the
additional overhead of geographic query requests and possibly
graphical input. Extension headers transmit predefined or detected
position information to reflect a location that the requesting agent
is interested in. This information may be used by a server to
present appropriate position-dependent responses, such as search
engine results or weather maps.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-daviel-http-geo-header-05.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.
