Re: [Ecrit] Location Protocols in Phone BCP



Martin:
I agree with your excellent reference frame explanation, and would
support additional documentation/discussion around how we assemble and
use the location 'complex' you've mentioned - since phonebcp
requirements provide for these kinds of location information by which a
complex could be formed.
