Ballot Text

Technical Summary

While the civic address type registry defined by RFC4119 and updated
by RFC5139 defines suffixes for street names and house numbers, it
does not define prefixes. This document defines two new civic address
fields that are regularly used in addressing: street prefix and house
number prefix.


Working Group Summary

There is consensus in the working group that the prefix fields this
document defines are necessary.

This is a simple, brief document that has been reviewed by key working
group members.
