Preparation for Spring GSIs TTC 20-22 February 2008 IPTV and NGN GSIs in Spring, 2008 SUN MON TUE WED THU FRI SAT April May 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 30 1 2 3 SG16 27 28 29 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 23 24 18 SG9 IPTV-GSI Kaleidoscope 19 SG16 IPTV-GSI 20 NGN-GSI 21 NGN-GSI 22 WP/13 2 IPTV GSI plan The table below shows the discussion plan considered by Rapporteurs. Proposed deadline for contributions is 23 April. The deadline is applicable to all contributions for IPTV-GSI and NGN-GSI. Question Q.1 Q.2 Q.3 Q.4 Q.7 Q.8 1st week (from 30 April to 2 May) 2nd week (from 5 to 7 May) scenarios IPTV service requirements multicast, scenarios, network control architecture multicast, network control joint with Q.13/SG12 IPTV interworking scenarios 3 Proposals We should remember that IPTV or NGN GSI is only an opportunity to discuss Questions. We should follow Question procedure. In spring, a certain Question has IPTV-GSI and NGN-GSI periods. Still, the meeting for the Question is a single stream, which is administrated by a single agenda and single report. Contributions have a single deadline. In fact, some Questions are planned to start in the IPTV-GSI period and end in the NGN-GSI period. The previous slide summarized the plan for some Questions during the IPTV-GSI period, showing roughly when the FG IPTV-originated drafts will be discussed. In the subsequent NGN-GSI period, some Questions, in particular Q.2 and Q.3, are scheduled to examine drafts that were originally produced by FG-IPTV. Thus it is recommended that we, NGN experts, participate in the sessions during the NGNGSI period, if our interests are related to NGN. To assist in getting a contribution discussed during the NGN-GSI period, the contribution should stress NGN aspects. This does not preclude the author from including proposals that may affect non-NGN or general aspects. We expect Rapporteurs to manage non-NGN matters. Participants should indicate their intentions in the contribution, for example, that “Proposals in this contribution are targeted mainly at NGN matters, though they may affect non-NGN or general aspects. I am willing to discuss this contribution during the NGN-GSI period. I would also appreciate a preliminary review during the IPTV-GSI period, although I may not be able to join in.” 4 Summary Since most CJK participants will not go to the GSI meetings for four weeks, the question is when to attend. I recommend we, NGN experts, should attend the NGN-GSI period, even though some Questions extend over both IPTVand NGN-GSI periods. 5 Appendix: IPTV and NGN GSIs in September, 2008 Another IPTV-GSI June 23 – 27 in Geneva or somewhere else?
