We carried out careful investigation by requesting and collecting feedbacks from the rapporteurs of relevant Questions. You can find hereunder SG16's reply on your requests. 1. The work that ITU-T SG16 is undertaking with regard to the IMS. ITU-T SG16 Reply: SG has so far not undertaken work related to IMS and associated text messaging. Q21/16, as a generic Question to deal with multimedia services and applications, has some interest in this aspect. Thus, Q21/16 is open to new opportunities to standardize multimedia services and applications based on IMS and for global messaging. 2. Obtain the views of ITU-T SG16 as to how there is differentiation between private IP networks and the Internet and how such differentiation is reflected in the Recommendations. ITU-T SG16 Reply: SG16 Recommendations do not make distinction between enterprise networks and public internet networks. 3. Provision of information on the use of the Internet to facilitate global communication and messaging services (including MMS), based on global service codes. ITU-T SG16 Reply: This does not apply to SG16. -3JCA-Res178 – Doc – 021 – E 4. The relevant collaboration activities that you have established between ITU-T SG2 and ITU-T SG3, and in particular on WTSA-12 Resolutions 29 and 64. ITU-T SG16 Reply: Other than coordination with ITU-T Q4/2 on human factors related issues for improvement of the quality of life through international telecommunications, currently there are no collaboration activities with SG2 and SG3. ITU-T SG16 will keep JCA on PP-10 informed of our future activities in this area, if any. __________________
