The IESG has received a request from the Geographic Location/Privacy WG (geopriv) to consider the following document: - 'Flow Identity Extension for HELD' <draft-ietf-geopriv-flow-identity-01.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2013-02-27. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract RFC 6155 specifies an extension for the HTTP-Enabled Location Delivery (HELD) Protocol allowing the use of an IP address and port number to request a Device location based on an individual packet flow. However, certain kinds of NAT require that identifiers for both ends of the packet flow must be specified in order to unambiguously satisfy the location request. This document specifies an XML Schema and URN Sub-Namespace for a Flow Identity Extension for HELD to support this requirement. This document updates RFC 6155 by deprecating the port number elements specified therein. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-geopriv-flow-identity/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-geopriv-flow-identity/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
