[sg16-avd] Upcoming ITU-T SG16 Meeting (23 May - 3 June 2016)

[Paul E. Jones]

WP1/16 Experts,

As most of you probably know, every 4 years the ITU-T restructures work, 
removes certain work items, and introduces new study areas.  These 
4-year cycles are referred to as a "Study Period" and this upcoming SG16 
meeting will be the final meeting for SG16 during this current Study 
Period.

We currently have plans to publish a new revision of H.323, H.225.0, and 
H.245, along with a number of Telepresence-related standards, several 
more H.248-related packages, etc.  Some of those, unfortunately, might 
not be able to go forward due to missing IETF references.  Nonetheless, 
we are aiming to have the texts related to the newest H.323 version and 
Telepresence documents finalized at this meeting.  To that end, if there 
are any additions, changes, corrections, etc. you would like to see to 
the documents planned for Consent or approval, I encourage you to submit 
a contribution to this meeting to make that happen.

The list of documents I have on my list that are scheduled for Consent 
or Approval are:
H.235.10 (DTLS support in H.323)H.323v8H.225.0v8H.245v17H.EMQA/V 
Profiles for Telepresence SystemsTelepresence SignalingH.248.50 
(revised)H.248.77 
(revised)H.248.CLOUDH.248.SHAPERH.248.SIPRECH.248.CodecSDPprofileH.Sup_OpenflowH.Sup_ALTCH.241 
(revised)H.239 Amendment 1Plus several documents in Q21/16 related to 
visual surveillance, energy management services, mobile animation file 
formats, personal device registration and discovery, virtual CDNs (and 
no doubt others I've missed)
There might be some additional cleanup work we will do in the 
H.323-Series Implementer's Guide, H-series supplement 4, etc.

For information related to this meeting, see:

I look forward to seeing everyone there at this final SG16 meeting for 
the study period.

Best Regards,
Paul E. Jones
Chair, ITU-T WP1/16
