Hi Folks, The sponsor of my ITU-T meeting participation has decided to discontinue this sponsorship. This put my further participation in great jeopardy. In addition, we are in the very sad situation that John Larmouth passed away. As you may know, ITU-T now starts on a new 4 years study period, where the Question structure is up for revision. As a result, the directory question and the ASN.1 question have been merged. In addition a dormant question mostly responsible for the maintenance of the OSI Recommendations, the ODP Recommendations and the X.400 Recommendations. You may see the detailed picture from attached file. The suggested title of the merged group is "Generic technologies to support secure applications". The next ITU-T SG17 meeting is in Geneva, 17 - 26 April 2013. It will be the only meeting during 2013 (see http://www.x500standard.com/index.php?n=Ig.Meetings). Erik
