Re: [Geopriv] Fwd: I-D Action:draft-ietf-geopriv-deref-protocol-01.txt

Supporting GET is a good idea. It makes the simple case simpler.

One minor comment: Given that one reason for supporting GET is
generic, non-HELD/PIDF-aware clients, doesn't it seem a little odd
that the GET example includes:
Accept: application/pidf+xml,application/held+xml;q=0.5

It might be a little more realistic to use something like a typical
XHR Accept line:
Accept: application/xml,text/xml;q=0.5,*;q=0.1
