  1. Report on GSC User Working Group

  2. Major achievements of the GSC User Group • Better communication between user working groups all along the year • 2 documents • Guide to user involvement in standard setting • Acronyms and definitions • Larger involvement of PSOs and other standard bodies in user issues

  3. Report of the GCS12 UWG Meeting • PSO and observers at the meeting: • CCSA • ETSI • ITU-T • TIA • TTA • OMA • ANSI • ISO • Presentation of I-Pin in Korea by TTA • 2 documents approved • Guide to user involvement in standard setting • Acronyms and definitions – version 1

  4. GSC User Working Group Recommendations (1) • to encourage PSOs to implement a framework for end user involvement in the standards setting process; • to encourage PSOs to promote the use of PSO user guides considering end-user needs in developing Recommendations inside and outside their organisation; • to encourage PSOs to consider the impact of new technologies, particularly RFID, protection of personally identifiable information and NGN technologies on users, and collaborate on raising user awareness on these technologies and standards in development; • to encourage PSOs to provide education and training for user representatives so that PSOs can provide “best practices” in user advocacy. The training should contain skills development to assist both users and industry in the development of standards; • to support the User Group in maintaining a general acronym and technical terms consolidated dictionary for ongoing use by end-users at GSC meetings; • to encourage PSOs to create and implement a communication strategy between PSOs, users and User Groups; recognizing that portals greatly assist on-going collaboration; • to maintain the GSC definition of types of users at the GSC-11: • Residential Consumers • Enterprise Users • End users • Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SME) • IT&T managers • Managers • Users with special needs • Service Providers • Government departments;

  5. GSC User Working Group Recommendations (2) • to encourage PSOs to collaborate with and where appropriate send Liaison Statements to ISO/IEC JTC1 (International Organization for Standardization/International Electrotechnical Commission Joint Technical Committee 1) and other standardization bodies on user-related issues and topics; • to encourage PSOs to develop approaches to provide standardized information for users about equipment features and network services which assist accessibility; • to encourage standardization of access to emergency services in places of public accommodation, e.g., elevator phones, alarms for nursing homes, house phones in hotels, hospital rooms, and subway tunnels; • to encourage PSOs to conduct user satisfaction surveys and harmonize the result of surveys; • to encourage standard developers to consider human factors as a key priority; and • to encourage the holding of a User Workshop in conjunction with GSC-13; building upon the success of the User Workshop held at GSC-12, or to encourage a user panel in the case of a symposium.
