I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-fax-gateway-options-08.txt

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Internet Fax Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Guideline of optional services for Internet FAX Gateway
	Author(s)	: K. Mimura, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-fax-gateway-options-08.txt
	Pages		: 9
	Date		: 2005-2-2
	
To allow connectivity between the general switched telephone network
   facsimile service (GSTN fax) and the e-mail based Internet Fax 
   service (i-fax) an "Internet FAX Gateway" is required. This document
   provides  guidelines for the optional functionality of Internet FAX 
   Gateways. In this context, an "offramp gateway" provides facsimile
   data transmission from  i-fax to GSTN fax; viceversa an "onramp
   gateway" provides data transmission form GSTN fax to i-fax. The 
   recommendations in this document apply to the integrated service 
   including Internet Fax terminals, computers with i-fax software on
   the Internet, and GSTN Fax terminals on the GSTN.

I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-fax-gateway-protocol-12.txt

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Internet Fax Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Internet FAX Gateway Functions

An Internet FAX Gateway provides functions which translate facsimile
between the general switched telephone network (GSTN) and the
Internet. This document provides information on recommended behaviors
for Internet FAX Gateway functions for email-based Internet Fax. In
this context, an offramp means facsimile data transmission to the
GSTN from the Internet, and onramp means facsimile data transmission
to the Internet from the GSTN. This document covers the delivery
process of data with equipment which may include Internet Fax
terminals, PCs on the Internet, and Fax terminals on the GSTN.

Internet FAX WG - we are FINALLY done!


Hallo all,

IESG has approved our last two pending documents! (the fax-gateway 
specifications).

Thus we finally ended the work on our charter. It was a long, complex run, 
but we made it!

I would like to thank all of you for all your work, contribution, efforts, 
and patience for reviewing (often many times!) our draft documents.

And a particolar thank you also to our previous WG chairs, Dave and James, 
which started the long path.

I think you will see in some time the official announcement of the WG 
closure, but we will remain the reference point for all internet fax 
related topics with our mailing list.

Cheers !!

Re: Internet FAX WG - we are FINALLY done!


Dear Colleagues,

As Claudio already said, we have finished all the work.
Let me say a little.

We can pe proud of our work itself, I believe.
We have made 27 RFCs, including 6 Draft Standards.
Although there are lots of dead I-Ds, I think most of them are reflected
in the RFCs in some ways.

Also, I would like to say we gave a good influence on ITU-T activities.

> I would like to thank all of you for all your work, contribution, efforts, 
> and patience for reviewing (often many times!) our draft documents.

Yes, without the efforts by all of you, we could not have achieved our goals.

> And a particolar thank you also to our previous WG chairs, Dave and James, 
> which started the long path.

Yes, I thank Dave and James very much.

Please note that our ML remains active. IMC allow us to keep it.

Again, thanks all of you.

Best regards,
