ISSUE-10: Should the Geolocation API methods provide an optional parameter of type URI that allows the location requesting service to advertise a policy (P3P or XACML or some other) that applies to the request? [GeoAPI V1] http://www.w3.org/2008/geolocation/track/issues/10 Raised by: Andrei Popescu On product: GeoAPI V1 In March 2009, Martin Thomson proposed that the Geolocation API methods should be extended to allow a Web site to provide Geolocation privacy-related information (e.g. text that explains how the website intends to use the user's location, a URL to a privacy policy, etc). This information would be rendered by the UA's chrome (e.g. in the geolocation permission dialog) and is intended to help the user decide whether or not to disclose her location to the website. This proposal was originally discussed in the following thread: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-geolocation/2009Mar/0131.html In June 2009, a similar proposal was brought up by Rigo Wenning: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-geolocation/2009Jun/0104.html
