The "recipient=" within the Geolocation header is a SIP parameter, in a SIP document. Everything discussed in Geopriv regarding this document needs to be approved in SIP too. The SIP WG hasn't heard this part of the discussion because most members of SIP aren't subscribed to the Geopriv list.

That SIP parameter in a SIP document relates to a PIDF-LO object carried by SIP; in that context, SIP is a using protocol of the GEOPRIV framework. SIP folks should certainly understand the work they're reusing, or the implementations won't do the right thing. But re-starting the conversation in SIP without reference to the discussions that have already occurred in GeoPRIV is a recipe for conflict at IETF Last Call. We might as well start getting people on the same page now. From my perspective, the right way to do that is to start the discussion from where it last left off, even if that wasn't in the same group. That tells people where the consensus of that group was
and informs the rest of the discussion.

Supposedly, the discussion in GEOPRIV was a joint SIP/GEOPRIV effort.

A brief recap of the conclusion in GEOPRIV might be reasonable, but I'd much rather not revisit the thousands of emails on the topic in GEOPRIV. If we notice now that it is broken in some horrible way we didn't, before, that might change the situation, but we shouldn't rehash the entire design rationale.
