Re: Mob ad hoc group progress

Paul:

Thanks for clarifications.

In the last conf call, we even cannot complete the simple intra-zone (intra-network, inter-network) scenarios first. You are right that we should concentrate on the scenarios (Registration procedures, Gatekeeper discovery, Location update, Call establishment, Mid-Call scenarios (e.g. supplementary services, user interaction, Call release).

Definitely, we can go further: Inter-Zone (intra-domain) scenarios as well if we can agree on the first one. AT&T contributions already contain many of those aspects. Hope to bring new contributions explaining further in both scenarios.

Best regards,

Radhika R. Roy AT&T

Radhika,

Conf call is for Annex H only as before...nothing has changed...change can only take place when the group agrees. Please do not read into the email more than what it says. I was only trying to highlight, in a high level report, the plight of Annex I since nothing much has moved in it, and it is an Annex which together with Annex H covers the mobility aspects. As far as Annex E is concerned, the point was that the mapping was the work of one individual or one company, thus could have errors or omissions (more than likely)...again only highlighting to people to check out this mapping.

Contributions for next conf call to be for All H.323 intra-network scenario for: Registration procedures, Gatekeeper discovery, Location update, Call establishment, Mid-Call scenarios (e.g. supplementary services, user interaction), Call release. Also contributions on any impacts on the already specified architecture in the light of the present work are welcome.

Paul

            Hi, Paul and Mobility Group:

            I like to see that it should be clarified via emails

whether H.323 Annex I and H.246 Annex E will be a part of the conference call. My personal preference is not to discuss annexes I and E during the conference call although email discussions will be preferred.

            If Annex I and E are included in the conference call, I

like to see the actual time in the agenda when these items will be discussed so that people can best use their time in joining the particular time slot for each Annex.

            The proposal is as follows:

            1. The upcoming conference call to be dedicated for H.323

Annex H. 2. Let both editors of H.323 Annex I and H.246 Annex E propose via emails whether any issues to addressed. 3. If annex I and E are included in the agenda of the upcoming conference call, I like to the time slots when these annexes will be discussed so that people can join the particular time slots of interest. Alternatively, separate conference calls can be arranged for annexes I and E. 4. Are editors or any members of the mobility group sure what would be the scope of work (I guess that Annex E is stable for now - thanks to the editor) for those annexes?

            Paul: Would you please clarify what specific area that we

need to discuss for the next conference call for H.323 Annex H? My guess is that we may start with intra-zone communication first. I am planning to bring contribution(s) describing this for mobility management: Discovery, Registration, Location Updates, and Call Establishment.

            I would appreciate comments form all members.

            Best regards,
