Subject: [Sipping-emergency] Does validation make coordinates obsolete?

Since some on this list have been claiming validation is a mandatory 
function of calling for (911-type) assistance, why would coordinates ever 
be used again?

This is troubling for many reasons, not the least of which is the fact that 
the PIDF-LO ID (in the RFC-Editor now) states coordinates are the default 
location conveyance (not civil addressing).

Validation of coordinates makes no sense to most, and I feel validation of 
civil addressing is a false sense of verification.

cheers,
James
