RE: [Ecrit] LoST

["Winterbottom, James" <[e-mail]>]

Hi Hannes,

That makes perfect sense.

The issue that I am most concerned about is the limitation in the shape
representation in the basic location profile. As it currently stands I
cannot use standard GPS related shapes, my end-point has to interpret
location and put into a profile. This is incompatible with a large
number of solutions deployed today on which many deployments will be
based, at least initially. I strongly urge this WG to reconsider this
restriction and include circle, and ellipse at a minimum.

Cheers
James
