GII standards
``` [Note that this message does not originate with me but with the people who are organizing this meeting. I think that the topic of GII standards is incredibly important because of the tendency of technical standards to get almost irreversibly entrenched in the market, and this meeting should be of wide interest even if the ISO itself has not always been the most dynamic player in setting networking standards so far.]

Purpose: ISO/IEC/ITU are hosting a Seminar on the Standards aspects of the Global Information Infrastructure (GII), in Geneva on January 24-26, 1996. The purpose of the seminar is twofold: a) to capture and share the current status of standardization relative to GII needs

They include decision makers, users, service providers, network operators, manufacturers, industry groups, government agencies, and standards development organizations including consortia and fora.
Organizers: This meeting is being organized by the ISO/IEC JTC 1 Ad Hoc and Hosts Group on GII. The membership of this planning group comprises representatives of the three hosting standards organizations and other experts from a wide spectrum of sectoral, regional and national interests.
Structure: The Seminar will run over 2.5 days. The first day will of the set the scene and establish a common understanding through Seminar information sharing. On the second day, participants will divide into four break-out groups. Each Group will tackle a specific theme. The first theme addresses the opportunities for partnerships and collaboration between the standards bodies. The second theme is focussed on what is needed for suppliers to move to universal standards. The third theme addresses consumer issues, and the fourth theme is dedicated to the special issues concerning interoperability. On the third day, the morning only session will start with presentations by the Break-Out groups on the problems identified in the previous day and conclude with a panel discussion to be focussed on next steps in solutions.
