Keith, Just noticed that V.150.1 refers to MIME application/v150mr. This should be audio/v150mr. Another item to add to the V.150.1 corrigendum. Rajesh

New SG16 Work Items
by Paul E. Jones 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Folks, As some of you know, there are new proposed work items within ITU-T SG16 address topics that I know are of interest to most of the people on this mailing list. Those are: a.. H.323 and SIP Interworking b.. NAT/FW Traversal Requirements and Protocols I would very much like to see contributions on both of these topics at the upcoming SG16 meeting in January. Both topics have often been discussed, but discussion is about as far as things have gone. If there is significant interest-- and there seems to be thus far-- we will form a new Question specifically on the topic of NAT/FW. However, until that happens, I am quite happy to accept those into Question D/16. I look forward to some constructive proposals, analysis/report of work done elsewhere, requirements, etc. Best Regards, Paul E. Jones Interim Rapporteur, Q.D/16

H.sms - Short Message Service
by Paul E. Jones 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Folks, Earlier this year, there were several that expressed an interest in a short message service within H.323. The idea was to have something that would be similar to what we have today with GSM mobile networks and, as much as possible, allow the two networks to interwork relatively well. (This H.sms service would not be used to replace the existing real-time text communication described in H.323 Annex G.) This document was reviewed during the May 2003 meeting, with just a few comments-- mainly calling for simplifying the service specification. The editor, as he usually does, did an excellent job at providing a complete service specification and he and I are both wondering which direction we should go in order to progress this work. Is it the desire of the experts to reduce the scope of H.sms? If there is a desire to have something simpler, precisely what should be changed? What requirements do companies have for a short message service within H.323? I want to solicit some comments on this document and get feedback from folks. This is primarily for the benefit of the editor, but certainly it is to the benefit of anybody wanting a short message service within H.323 systems. For the benefit of all, I have placed the editor's initial draft document here: http://geneva.packetizer.org/misc/h-sms.zip Your input is very much needed to see this work move forward. Thanks, Paul E. Jones Rapporteur, Q2/16

Dear experts, Sorry to repeat Mr Okubo's warning in an even more explicit form, but I would like to have that clear: if the document is *only* uploaded to the FTP area mentioned in Mr Okubo's email, and *not* submitted through the formal ITU-T document submission process at the latest on 08 Jan 04, the document will **NOT** be seen in the SG 16 meeting 20-30 January 2003. No exceptions! The latter is mandatory, the former is optional (but suggested by Mr Okubo). Best regards Simao > -----Original Message----- > ... > Let me stress that this provision of advance review at the informal > site is INDEPENDENT from the formal submission of your contributions > / documents to ITU-TSB. >

Dear colleagues, TSB issued Circular Letter 184 (see www.itu.int/md/meetingdoc.asp?type=sitems&parent=T01-TSB-CIR-0184) with a questionnaire regarding national assignment authorities for T.35 Terminal Provider Code Questionnaire. To-date, we have received replies only from the following administrations: - Czech Republic - France - Japan - Kyrgyzstan - Mauritius - Suriname I would like to invite you to encourage your administration to provide us a reply as soon as possible. I would also like to note that the last question in the questionnaire was there by mistake, and shoud be ignored ("5. Do you have requirements for priority communications from your network needing to be terminated in another country with some degree of priority?"). Your assistance will enable us to create a more useful database.

Dear colleagues, FYI. I guess we now have to wait for an RFC number. Best regards, Simao -----Original Message----- From: The IESG [mailto:iesg-secretary@ietf.org] Sent: 08 December 2003 20:00 To: IETF-Announce Cc: Internet Architecture Board; RFC Editor; enum(a)ietf.org Subject: Protocol Action: 'ENUM Service Registration for H.323 URL' to Proposed Standard The IESG has approved following document: - 'ENUM Service Registration for H.323 URL ' <draft-ietf-enum-h323-01.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Telephone Number Mapping Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Allison Mankin and Jon Peterson. Technical Summary This document registers an ENUM service for ITU-T Recommendation H.323 according to specifications and guidelines in RFC2916bis. In particular it is the specification of the E2U+H23 ENUM service. It provides ENUM support for multimedia communications deployed using H.323. Working Group Summary There was no working group dissent about specifying this service, or about the particulars of the specification. It was well-reviewed in the Working Group. Protocol Quality The specification was reviewed for the IESG by Allison Mankin. RFC Editor Note Remove the word URL from the title so that the title becomes "ENUM Service Registration for H.323". Remove the citations for RFC 2916bis and H.323 in the abstract. They can be silently removed without any replacement. Add to the end of the Security Considerations: An analysis of threats specific to the dependence of ENUM on the DNS, and the applicability of DNSSEC [##] to these, is provided in [3].
