2. ECRIT - IETF 74 (March 2009) - San Francisco Introduction Non-emergency location-based services are widespread Descriptive terms for such services are almost unbounded A policy for defining new non-emergency service labels is needed

3. ECRIT - IETF 74 (March 2009) - San Francisco Current Approach New service identifying labels –Creating a new service requires IANA action –Policy for adding top-level service labels is ‘Standard Action’ –True for both emergency and non-emergency services

4. ECRIT - IETF 74 (March 2009) - San Francisco Proposed Solution Emergency Services –Limited number of possible services –Classification is critical –Adding top-level emergency services still requires standard action Non-emergency services –Very large number of possible services –Classification is less critical –Updating IANA section of RFC 5031 Policy for adding top-level service labels is "Expert Review".
