From what I understand, there is a new work item for developing a device
control protocol within SG16. I hope that SGCP and IPDC, and the imminent
merging of the two, will be considered as a basis for this protocol. There
will be a device control WG set up shortly in the IETF, as well as a mailing
I would not say that SGCP and IPDC are at all replacing H.323. These
protocols are used between a Media Gateway Controller (MC) and a Media
Gateway (MG), as device control protocols. An MG is used for telephony to
packet conversion, from, for example, PSTN to IP. Interworking with H.323
would occur in the MC and/or the MG.
list for this subject. I will forward this and the proposed charter for the
WG to this mailing list as soon as I receive it.

Dear Mme Lapierre,
I find it a little confusing that your email says that standards
makers will present what the signalling of VoIP will look like,
and that your agenda refers to the session as an H.323/IP workshop,
yet none of the scheduled talks seem to talk about H.323. Rather
there seems to be a focus on the gateway control protocols (SGCP
and IPDC) which as you know, are being pushed by some parties as
replacements for H.323. Can you clear up my confusion?

Good evening,
please find attached an invitation to a workshop on VoIP where key
VoIP experts will be present.
Standards makers will present what the signalling of VoIP will look
like, and its impact on the network architecture.
IP / VoIP manufacturers will be there.
Operators will be discussing how and when they see VoIP in their
networks.
I will be happy to chair this session.
The workshop is sponsored by the TINA consortium, so that the entry
is
free.
Nevertheless, we need to know the number of persons who will attend
to
determine the room size, so be kind enough to register if you or a
representant of your company are coming.

- The network architecture and signalling for an IP based vocal and
data operator.
During the afternoon, four presentations and an open discussion will
take place.
