11/17/ /AGS(Secr.)/3XX, AGM(Secr.)/YYY 2 Activities after the last AGS meeting  TC 100/AGS sent a report to SMB as SMB/3752/R  In this report, AGS asked SMB’s decision for Recommendation 0804/1  SMB decided IEC/SMB 132 Decision 9 at its June 2008 meeting  In order to implement this Decision, TC 100 decided to call the first TC 100 High-level meeting on November 20  In addition, TC 100 management team had coordination meetings with ISO/IEC JTC 1

11/17/ /AGS(Secr.)/3XX, AGM(Secr.)/YYY 3 A.1 TC100 strategy for IPTV standardization  Recommendation 0804/1 Report to AGS on IPTV standardization ---) 100/AGS(Secr.)305rev1 AGS recognizes significant overlapping on home-network and IDTV receiver standardizations on IPTV systems and/or equipment between IEC/TC 100 and some ITU-T Study Groups. AGS advises SMB to consider the establishment of a collaboration group between IEC TC 100 Chairman and Secretaries and relevant ITU-T Study Groups’ Chairmen. Because AGS foresees the similar situation between ‘ISO/IEC JTC 1 and its SCs’ and relevant ITU-T Study Groups on home gateway standardization, AGS also proposes that the SMB consider the establishment of a joint collaboration group between IEC TC 100, ‘ISO/IEC JTC 1 and its SCs’ and relevant ITU-T Study Groups on home networking, home gateway and IPTV standardizations.  Document 100/AGS(Secr.)305rev1 is attached to this document for information. Please see Page 13 and 14 of the PPT file for detailed proposed actions.  IDTV: Integrated Digital TV receiver

11/17/ /AGS(Secr.)/3XX, AGM(Secr.)/YYY 4 IEC/SMB 132 Decision 9  IEC/TC 100 AGS concerns the future overlap of IPTV systems/equipment standardization between IEC/TC100 and ITU-T, and recommends that SMB should organize a coordination group on IPTV.  This issue was discussed at IEC/SMB 132 meeting in early Jun2 this year and it made the following decision.  SMB Decision 132/9 - TC 100/AGS – SMB/3752/R, SMB/3752A/CC  The SMB agreed with the TC 100/AGS recommendation for a collaboration group between IEC TC 100 Chairman and Secretaries and relevant ITU-T Study Groups’ Chairmen on the subject of home-network and IDTV receiver standardizations on IPTV systems and/or equipment, and recommended representation from TC 100, JTC 1, ITU and ETSI in order to set up a better cooperation between these different bodies.  The SMB invited ITU-T to concur.
