Document Scope This document changes the policy of the Location-to-Service Translation (LoST) Location Profile registry [reg] established by [RFC5222] from Standards Action to Specification Required (as defined in [RFC5226]). This allows standards development organizations (SDOs) other than the IETF to add new values. 2. Introduction The Location-to-Service Translation Protocol, LoST [RFC5222] uses a location profile when conveying location (e.g., in a mapping request and a service boundary result). [RFC5222] established an IANA registry of location profiles [reg], with a registry policy of Standards Action. This requires a standards-track RFC for any new registry values. The National Emergency Number Association (NENA) is an SDO that makes significant use of LoST in its emergency call specifications (e.g., [NENA-i3]) and has identified a need for additional location profiles. This document changes the registry policy to Specification Required, allowing other SDOs such as NENA to add values. 3. Security Considerations No new security considerations are identified by this change in registry policy. 4. IANA Considerations IANA is requested to change the policy of the Location-to-Service Translation (LoST) Location Profile Registry (established by [RFC5222]) to Specification Required. The expert reviewer is Brian Rosen or a successor designated by the Applications and Real-Time Gellens Expires March 29, 2021 [Page 2] Internet-Draft LoST-Validation September 2020 area director. The reviewer should use a criteria of a clear need and unambiguous definition for any new value. 5. References 5.1.
