Re: [Geopriv] Fwd: I-D Action:draft-george-geopriv-lamp-post-00.txt

I am a co-author on this draft, and the milepost addition to the lamp  
post original was motivated by the NENA requirement to have a milepost.

I agree that the MP nearly always needs a road name.  So does a house  
number.  The current documents don't have requirements like that,  
primarily because we keep finding odd cases that don't meet what we  
thought was a simple rule.
