Future of Numbering WG Mission • To explore changes to the environment, including new and future technologies, the impact of market place and/or regulatory changes and innovations on telephone numbering. Scope: • The Working Group will investigate new telephone numbering assignment approaches and future telephone number assignment requirements. The Working Group will identify common criteria and gather data to identify trends and their impact upon numbering resources. The Working Group, if necessary, will analyze opportunities to determine the feasibility and benefit of each and report its findings to the NANC. The Working Group will also analyze various topics that may be given to it from time to time by the NANC and/or FCC.
Future of Numbering WG Status: • One of our tri-chairs, Kathleen Bakke, Wisconsin PSC, stepped down from the FoN WG tri-chair position due to changes in job responsibilities. • We want to thank Kathy for all of her hard work on the FoN WG and wish her the best in her new role! • New contribution from AT&T was discussed regarding Numbering Testbed Parameters. • The FoN agreed to hold this contribution until more information regarding the testbed is made available. • SubCommitteeUpdates • FTN 4: Geographic Issues • The Geographic Numbering sub-committee is discussing the consumer perspective and service implications regarding the geography of telephone numbers and the decoupling or disassociation of numbers from geography. The sub-committee is creating a white paper to be shared with the FoN WG upon completion.
