(geopriv) to consider the following document:
- 'Geolocation Policy: A Document Format for Expressing Privacy
Preferences for Location Information'
<draft-ietf-geopriv-policy-25.txt> as a Proposed Standard
This last call focuses on the changes related to location obfuscation (fuzzing)
resulting from additional working group attention resulting from a prior IESG review.
Please focus the review on the difference between versions -21 and -25 of this draft.
Version -21 of this document was IETF LCed in Jun 2010. Subsequent
IESG review identified an issue with location obfuscation that required
additional working group attention.
Version -11 of this document was IETF LCed in Feb 2007 - subsequent
IESG review identified several issues. The resulting working group
discussion resulted in significant changes to the document.
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2012-04-03. Exceptionally, comments may be
sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.
Abstract
This document defines an authorization policy language for
controlling access to location information. It extends the Common
Policy authorization framework to provide location-specific access
control. More specifically, this document defines condition elements
specific to location information in order to restrict access based on
the current location of the Target.
Furthermore, this document defines two algorithms for reducing the
granularity of returned location information. The first algorithm is
defined for usage with civic location information while the other one
applies to geodetic location information. Both algorithms come with
limitations, i.e. they provide location obfuscation under certain
conditions and may therefore not be appropriate for all application
domains.
