[edit] Agenda & Discussion
[edit] SMS
- Anti trust reminder
- Participants were reminded of the need to be aware of antitrust requirements when discussing billing and charging approaches.
- Results of the prioritization feedback for SMS
- Responses from the SMS survey were reviewed. Key points were:
- Few issues with signaling, other than a desire for a serving network identifier in the SMDPP message, if the true point code is not available
- Most/all carriers aren't producing CDRs from their MSCs - all do so from their MCs.
- Inability for home operator to determine the true serving operator is a problem for MO-SMS billing. May also be an issue for MT, although this has been less fully examined.
- Different opinions on the value of CIBER record transfer for SMS - further discussion on this is needed!
- White paper forthcoming
- A White paper on SMS Roaming will hopefully be available within the next two weeks. It will discuss many of the issues contained in the survey questions and responses, and provide some suggested solutions.
- Call for volunteers for two documents
-
- SMS Roaming partner qualification form - Dave G from VeriSign agreed to edit the SMS Partner Qualification Document.
- Test plan - No volunteer for test plan as yet.
- Next steps
- Update at next meeting, any carrier who has not completed the survey is encouraged to do so.
[edit] Voice
- Results of the prioritization feedback for Voice
- Several carriers weighed in on priorities. Tier 1 has been set but tier 2 and beyond will be further discussed. Please provide feedback if you have not already done so.
- Set top Voice 2006 priorities
- Tier 1 priorities are set and will be addressed first. Remaining tiers will be discussed during the next meeting and may change depending on feedback. When a tier one item is completed or near completion we will move on to tier 2 items and so on. The goal will be to work as far down the list as time and resources permit while still delivering a quality and usable product.
