Informative References + Acknowledgements + Author's Address + +1. Introduction + + The Location-to-Service Translation (LoST) Protocol [RFC5222] uses a + location profile when conveying location (e.g., in a mapping request + and a service boundary result). [RFC5222] established an IANA + registry of location profiles [reg] with a registry policy of + Standards Action. This requires a Standards Track RFC for any new + registry values. The National Emergency Number Association (NENA) is + a standards development organization (SDO) that makes significant use + of LoST in its emergency call specifications (e.g., [NENA-i3]) and + has identified a need for additional location profiles. This + document changes the registry policy to Specification Required, + allowing other SDOs such as NENA to add values. + +2. Document Scope + + This document changes the policy of the "Location-to-Service + Translation (LoST) Location Profiles" IANA registry [reg] established + by [RFC5222] from Standards Action to Specification Required (as + defined in [RFC8126]). This allows SDOs other than the IETF to add + new values. + +3. Security Considerations + + No new security considerations are identified by this change in + registry policy. + +4. IANA Considerations + + IANA has changed the policy of the "Location-to-Service Translation + (LoST) Location Profiles" registry (established by [RFC5222]) to + Specification Required. IANA has also added this document as a + reference for the registry. The Expert Reviewer is designated per + [RFC8126]. The reviewer should verify that: + + * the proposed new value is specified by the IETF, NENA, or a + similar SDO in which location profiles are in scope; + + * the proposed new value has a clear need (which includes there not + being an existing profile that meets the need); and + + * the profile specification is unambiguous and interoperable. + +5.
