Thanks Mark,

And Kevin
 - I agree that particular uses, including emergency uses, are beyond this 
committee -- unless a feature in the technical spec can enable or disable an 
application of the technology or its use in that application.  Then it should 
be raised I would think.   I had thought that was the case here -- especially 
since with emergency systems communication networks they are putting gateways 
and translators in the path (to allow all types of communication to reach the 
NG9-1-1 centers) so the final point may not be able to directly see the 
originating point -and may not even be using the same technology.     That was 
the only reason I raised the topic.

However, I think Mark has found a balance.     Hope that works.
