Hi James,

the IANA policy to be used is an important issue and, thus, needs to be
discussed in the WG. For your comments, it seems the "Standards Action"
policy in RFC 5226 is what you are after. In any case, regardless of the
policy you finally choose, please engage the group so that we can move
this draft forward.

With respect to the other comment, I agree removing the word "only"
would make the sentence clearer.

Thanks,

Gonzalo

In the AD review of the current UUI mechanism draft (draft-ietf-cuss-sip-uu=
i-08.txt), one question which came up (as per below) was on the IANA policy=
 which should be specified within the draft for cases where users want to r=
egister a new UUI package.   Over the past year, there's been some limited =
discussion on this on the list. =20

In RFC 5226 (IANA Considerations Section in RFCs), there are a variety of c=
hoices which are possible for an IANA policy, including "Private use", "
Expert Review",  "Specification Required", "RFC Required", "Standards Actio=
n" and several others.   =20

The policy which is currently shown for the -08 version of the draft is des=
cribed as: "New uui-packages
 MUST follow the "RFC Required" guideline as defined in [RFC5226] and shall=
 be registered as a result of a standards track RFC."  In his comment below=
, Gonzalo correctly points out that a more concise description in RFC 5226 =
which corresponds to requiring a standards track RFC approved by the IESG i=
s "Standards Action".    =20

To date, the only package on target to be registered with IANA is the "ISDN=
 Package," which is targeted as a standards track RFC.   If we continue alo=
ng the current path, the next UUI mechanism draft will use the "Standards A=
ction" terminology as the IANA Policy for adding a new package.  =20

So the question Alan Johnston and I want to pose to the list is whether the=
re are any objections to proceeding with the current direction of "Standard=
s Action" as the policy for establishing new UUI packages in the IANA regis=
try in the UUI mechanism draft.  =20

If you have opinions on this matter, please send them to the list.=20

Thanks,=20

Early on I registered a concern about the policy, but eventually I gave 
up on it. But let me try again.

One of the major uses of UUI is for call centers. They are likely to 
connect a caller to an IVR in order to get info about the caller. Once 
they have learned enough about what the caller wants, they transfer the 
call to an agent. When doing so they want to convey info learned about 
the caller, so it can be used by a computer to provide the agent with info.

Traditionally this was handled using "ITU-T DSS1 User-user information 
element [Q931], [Q957.1] and ITU-T Q.763 User-to-user information 
parameter [Q763] data". That uses one octet as a "protocol 
discriminator" and 128 octets of data. How this is used is all 
proprietary and ad hoc. A receiver of this data must just "know" what 
format the data will take. CUSS addresses backwards compatibility with 
this via the package "isdn-uui" registered by draft-ietf-cuss-sip-uui-isdn.

IMO the intent of the UUI "purpose" and "content" parameters was to 
improve on the legacy situation, by allowing a sender to identify more 
about the data. This way a receiver can determine if it knows how to 
interpret what it has received.

But for that to work in practice, it must be feasible for those who 
define the data to define the formats. For call center stuff, the data 
to be transmitted, and the format for representing it is likely to be 
defined by either:
- the vendor of a particular IVR system or call center application,
- OR, an individual enterprise that is deploying an IVR/call center.

Neither of these is very likely to find it practical to publish an RFC.

- A sw vendor could probably manage to register via a FCFS policy.

- An individual enterprise probably won't find it acceptable to
   register *anything*.

My personal feeling is that there probably ought to be several 
mechanisms, such as there are for feature tags.

I went along with the current approach because I wasn't getting buy-in 
for anything else, and I figure that we can *start* with a restrictive 
policy and then relax it later. In the short term I gather everyone 
intends to stick with legacy compatibility and use what is defined in 
draft-ietf-cuss-sip-uui-isdn.

	Thanks,
	Paul

There were several items to be clarified at that time around what kind of content needed to be specified for new UUI applications as a result of October list discussions and an interim meeting.

Folks: The cutoff date to request a meeting for the March 2013 IETF is
next week on Monday.

Enrico and I need to determine if a f2f meeting is desirable.

The mechanism draft is currently seeking solicitations for
clarification regarding the IANA policy, as described in [1].  That
appears to be the only outstanding issue on its way to publication
requested (it is currently in Publication Requested stage already).

Enrico and I will like to urge the WG members to respond to [1]; Paul
K. has posted his response.  A larger audience is sought to close
this issue.

Regarding the status of the ISDN-service draft, Celine had opened up a
discussion item starting at the thread in [2] in July 2012.  That
thread seemed to have culminated in November 9 2012.  So I suspect the
authors of this draft can release a new version that can be moved ahead.

As such, it seems we can close the open issues on the mailing list, and
furthermore, Enrico and I are hoping we can do this before the March
IETF, perhaps through the use of an interim meeting if the need arises.

As such, does the WG need a f2f meeting?  Please let us know well
before Monday.  While we can always reserve-and-release-if-not-needed,
I personally think that doing so is a disservice to the community as
anyone who has been a chair can attest to the swap-my-wg email storm
that ensures when the draft agenda is released by the secretariat.

I don't think there is a need for a f2f meeting *unless* there is a 
decision to revisit the IANA policy and to debate the pros/cons. Even 
then we may not need one.

Note that in spite of my comment about the policy, I am not asking for 
it to be changed at this time.

	Thanks,
	Paul

Folks: Based on the rather tepid response to the question on "to meet
or not to meet" in Orlando IETF, it seems that a F2F meeting is not
required.  Accordingly, Enrico and I will not ask for one.

That said, the work has to continue.

Enrico and I will like to urge the list participants to respond to Mr.
Rafferty's call for opinion on the appropriate IANA policy [1].  In the
absence of any other proposal, the current "Standards Action" policy
will be adopted.  Mr. Kyzivat has noted that this may suffice for the
ISDN use case but not for others.  However, he is fine if we proceed
with "Standards Action" (at least that is my interpretation).

So, please chime in now or we will proceed with "Standards Action".  If
it helps to set a deadline to close the opinion call in [1], we can go
with requesting that the WG express opinions by January 28, 2013 in
favor of the current approach or provide new approaches

And finally, I will like to urge the authors of the ISDN use case
draft that a discussion was opened up in a thread [2] in July 2012.
That thread seemed to have culminated in November 9 2012.  So I suspect
the authors of this draft can release a new version that can be moved
ahead.
