Xiaotao and I agreed on a simple http interface to the location server.
It is what you might call a RESTful interface
(http://internet.conveyor.com/RESTwiki/moin.cgi/). It makes an easy
interface for Xiaotao to work with. I'll probably make an equivalent
SOAP interface at some point.

The first call is implemented. The second one is faked -- it always
returns the same location info. I have not done



1) get sip identity associated with IP address:

GET http://ser.uits.indiana.edu:4110/16.11.0.22/sipuri

returns text/plain sipuri

for some IP address such as 16.11.0.22

2) get location for device with IP address:

GET http://ser.uits.indiana.edu:4110/16.11.0.22/location

returns two lines of content:
x y
roomname

3) get location for sipuri:

GET
http://ser.uits.indiana.edu:4110//location

returns two lines of content:
x y
roomname

My next step is to allow put or post of location for manual updates.
