bcc to iesg-secretary

Can you please put this Charter on the agenda for the next IESG call.   
It should go in the "4.1.1 Proposed for IETF Review" section.


----------------------------


The IETF has recognized that many applications are emerging that require
geographic and civic location information about resources and entities,
and that the representation and transmission of that information has
significant privacy and security implications. We have created a suite
of protocols that allow such applications to represent and transmit such
location objects and to allow users to express policies on how these
representations are exposed and used. The IETF has also begun working on
creating applications that use these capabilities, for emergency
services, general real-time communication, and other usages.

The GEOPRIV working group is chartered to continue to develop and refine
representations of location in Internet protocols, and to analyze the
authorization, integrity, and privacy requirements that must be met when
these representations of location are created, stored, and used. The
group will create and refine mechanisms for the transmission of these
representations that address the requirements that have been identified.

The working group will work with other IETF working groups and other
standards development organizations that are building applications that
use location information to ensure that the requirements are well
understood and met, and that no additional security or privacy issues
related to location are left unaddressed as these location information
is incorporated into other protocols.

It remains a goal of the GEOPRIV working group to deliver specifications
of broad applicability that will become mandatory to implement for IETF
protocols that are location aware.

This working group will not develop location-determining technology.  
However, the IETF acknowledges that information used in the location-
determination process will in some cases need to be carried over the
Internet. Where necessary, this working group will develop protocols or
protocol extensions to encode location-determination data structures
defined elsewhere. This working group will not develop technologies to
directly address any particular regulatory requirements (e.g. 9-1-1).
The group will continue to coordinate with any other IETF entities that
are working on those problems to ensure the technologies created here
meet the needs of those entities, and that the authorization, integrity,
and privacy requirements on the mechanisms provided by these
technologies continue to be met.
