A new group has formed to study the area of providing robustness mechanisms for H.323. This group has agreed to work on items together. Attached is TD-28 written in Red Bank which outlines terms of reference for work to be undertaken towards providing robustness mechanisms in H.323 and identifies a number of potential future work areas. The group decided to initially work on defining a set of terms for robustness via the mailing list. Please send contributions of relevant terms (and optionally their definitions). Please put [Robustness] in the subject line for those who want to filter e-mail. The group will schedule occasional conference calls open to any interested parties. Nokia will host the first conference call. Conference Call Agenda: A. terms submitted on the mailing list B. next steps for the group I propose Tuesday, November 16 as the first conference call to be held from 11-12 EST. Please send e-mail to me at: maureen.stillman@nokia.com if you wish to participate or if the time is not good, but you wish to participate.
