Re: [Ecrit] [Geopriv] Announce: Specifying Derived Location in a PIDF-LO

["Brian Rosen" <br at brianrosen.net>]

Actually, no.

All you need to specify that a location is derived is to have the method
token set to derived.

James thinks there is value in linking the derived PIDF to the original
PIDF.

That is a separate question.

I think there is some merit in the basic idea of linking.

I wonder if this is a specific case of a more general notion: expressing a
relationship between two PIDFs?
