A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.

	Title           : Location-to-Service Translation Protocol (LoST) Extension: ServiceListBoundary
	Author(s)       : K. Wolf

	Pages           : 9
	Date            : 2009-10-01

LoST maps service identifiers and location information to service
contact URIs.  If a LoST client wants to discover available services
for a particular location, it will perform a <listServicesByLocation>
query to the LoST server.  However, the response from the LoST server
does not provide information about the geographical region for which
the returned service list is valid.  Therefore, this document
proposes a ServiceListBoundary to assist the client to not miss a
change in available services when moving.

This document examines the role of the transport checksum when used
with IPv6, as defined in RFC2460.  It presents a summary of the
trade-offs for evaluating the safety of updating RFC 2460 to permit
an IPv6 UDP endpoint to use a zero value in the checksum field to
indicate that no checksum is present.
