Hi Dom, et al, Just an FYI on the Geolocation address format referenced here: On Jul 30, 2009, at 3:57 AM, Dominique Hazael-Massieux wrote: > ... > * Contacts > Nokia's address interface more precise - note overlap with Geolocation > v2 spec: > http://dev.w3.org/geo/api/spec-source-v2.html#address_interface (which > has more fields: county, streetNumber, premises, additionalInfo; diff > 'postalCode' / 'code' There have been lots of discussions on the civic address format, and I expect more to come as work on the 'v2' Geolocation API ramps up. So far we've discussed: the format of the fields themselves [1] the field name of the 'civic address' [2] 'civic address' use cases [3] comparing addresses [4] defining transformations between address formats [5] I think it would be a laudable goal for the device APIs and the Geolocation API to have interoperability in our address formats. -Matt [1] http://www.w3.org/2008/geolocation/track/issues/77 [2] http://www.w3.org/2008/geolocation/track/issues/78 [3] http://www.w3.org/2008/geolocation/track/issues/79 [4] http://www.w3.org/2008/geolocation/track/issues/80 [4] http://www.w3.org/2008/geolocation/track/issues/81
