Subject: [Geopriv] a proposal for <provided-by>

I have the following proposal for <provided-by>:

This element should contain an unbounded sequence of elements in other 
namespaces from a schema perspective.  It would look like this:

     <sequence>
       <any
         namespace="##other"
         processContents="skip"
         minOccurs="1"
         maxOccurs="unbounded" />
     </sequence>

The allowed namespaces will be governed by an IANA registry.  The 
registry will have expert reviewers and will initially be populated 
with a namespace for NENA (should be a simple schema associated with 
it).

This has the following advantage:
    1) interpretation of the provided-by information is much more 
specific allowing better interoperability
    2) the can be more than one set of provided-by information
    3) new sets of information go through a review process to insure 
they do not violate the spirit of GEOPRIV
