Hi Pete,
I don't see this as a new protocol. It is a new service tag that is
optional to use. Not using it won't break anything that wouldn't be
broken without the tag being defined. Using it is an optimization. I
see the draft as only adding a new tag, not defining a new protocol.

Hi Randy,
Section 3 of the document defines the operations that one must perform
in order to use the tag. It explains how to go beyond what 5222 provides
by defining which order to look up the servers and what to do depending
on the results received. It changes the discovery procedure defined

Hi Pete,
The document adds a tag. It also contains informational text that
explains how it is expected to be used. There isn't any normative text.
Once the tag is defined, then NENA i3 will be updated to refer to it,
and to mandate how NENA-compliant clients and servers use it. But a

I agree with Pete. There’s more to a protocol than the on-the-wire bits.
Anything important for interop to work should be considered part of the
protocol. Discovery is an important part of that. Changing discovery to spread
functions across different servers is a change to
Hi Randy,
We probably at some core level disagree about whether "informational
text that explains how it is expected to be used" is in-and-of-itself
"normative"; I think in IETF documents, that's really all that it means.
But that might be moot: If the NENA document is going to be updated to
Interoperability isn't being changed. RFC 5222 allows LoST servers to
refuse to perform location validation. Adding a tag just provides an
optimization so that clients can avoid getting into a situation where
the server they discovered refuses to do validation.

I'd be happy to delete all the explanatory and background text, and just
point to the NENA document. The text was added by request.
