+RFC 779                                                       April 1981
+TELNET SEND-LOCATION Option
+
+
+
+4.  Motivation for the option.
+
+   Many network sites now provide a listing of the users currently
+   logged in giving their names and locations (see the NAME/FINGER
+   protocol, RFC 742).  The location is useful for physically locating
+   the user if he or she is nearby, or for calling them (a nearby phone
+   number is often included). However, for users logged in via the
+   network, the location printed is often no more than the originating
+   site name. This TELNET option allows the user's TELNET program to
+   send the user's location to the server TELNET so that it can be
+   displayed in addition to the site name.  This functionality is
+   already present in the SUPDUP protocol (RFC 734).
+
+5.  Description of the option.
+
+   When the user TELNET program knows the user's location, it should
+   offer to transmit this information to the server TELNET by sending
+   IAC WILL SEND-LOCATION.  If the server's system is able to make use
+   of this information (as can the ITS sites), then the server will
+   reply with IAC DO SEND-LOCATION.  The user TELNET is then free to
+   send the location in a subnegotiation at any time.
