Re: FYI - SIP-H.323 Interworking BOF
Dear Colleagues,
It is not a bad idea that people should discuss this item as a small group depending on their interest.
However, if people have a general interest to discuss it in the SG16 reflector, it is their choice. No one individual or a company should restrict it. Let us understand the norm of using the SG16 reflector first.
Best regards, Radhika R. Roy

Dear Colleagues,
I don't want to hurt anybody,...
but I understand that Martin Euchner is getting a bit inpatient, me too. It is really necessary that for an issue that has received in the last ITU-T SG16 meeting let me say a relatively modest support, now everybody on the SG16 Reflector has to "listen" the detailed discussion what should be done, why, where, when... etc. Would it not be possible that those individuals, who have an apparent interest in the SIP/H.323 interoperability topic discuss this first among themselves and the contributions get introduced only at the next SG16 meeting in May or at least when the contributions are finished?
I hope on your understanding.
Many regards, Istvan Sebestyen

Hi, Everyone:
ITU-T and IETF are the formal standard bodies to create standards for H.323 and SIP, respectively, and the interworking standard between the two is also a part of it..
However, all inputs from other organizations will definitely be
welcomed.
Best regards, Radhika R. Roy AT&T

just for your information for those interested in H.323/SIP:
I would like to draw your attention to an activity group already
debating
H.323-SIP interworking for quite a while: IMTC aHIT!. To my knowledge
they
already came out with some first results on architectures and
interworking
scenarios. Please get in touch with this group and consider their
results.
see also http://www.imtc.org/act_ahit.htm http://www.imtc.org/act_ahit.htm and discussions on their mailing list.
Thus, it appears to me that there are already quite a few groups
(IETF,
IMTC, ETSI) discussing H323/SIP interworking. I do not quite see
necessity
to have ITU-T SG16 as yet another group for this topic.
regards
Martin.

interworking. I attached the tentative agenda for the BOF. Depending on the speakers we identify, the agenda may inlcude some presenters but the main focus will not be modified. Regards, Joon
BOF: SIP and H.323 Interworking (sip323) Area: Transport Time requested: one 1 hour slot Chairs: Joon Maeng <joon_maeng@vtel.com> Dave Walker <drwalker@ss8networks.com> Description: There are two competing standards in the industry for
establishing
and managing real-time interactive media communications over IP.
One
is the proposed IETF standard, Session Initiation Protocol (RFC
2543),
and the other is the ITU recommendation, H.323. Although they use the same protocol (RTP) for media streaming, they cannot establish
calls
between them. In the absence of any formal interoperability
standards,
many vendors are beginning to develop proprietary application
gateways
for interworking between SIP and H.323.
In order to provide interoperability between the two
standards,
it
is urgent to define a common interworking specifications for the industry. The recognition of the need for this interworking
specification
has lead to calls for its development from both manufacturers and
service
providers, individually and through industry consortia (such
as
IMTC) and other bodies concerned with interoperability (such as
ETSI).
In this BOF, we are going to discuss SIP and H.323
interworking
issues, execution plans and the scope of the work.
Agenda: - Do we need SIP-H.323 interworking? - Coordination with other groups? - Scope of interworking - Outcome of the work? - Suggestions?
