PR will be merged as soon as ready for TSC, and should be merged before TSC review
API enhancements requires existing group’s validation. TSC is informed accordingly to validate

GSMA informed CAMARA Backlog that Open Gateway is considering certain Drop2/3/4 APIs that have been stuck in Backlog, “at risk”, due to lack of support. What this means is that GSMA is pushing our MNOs to actively reconsider within the next 2 weeks if they can support them. By raising it in the Backlog meeting we increase the chance to find enough support to “reactivate” progress.
Best Interconnect
IMEI Fraud API
For clarity if any API is not a priority for OGW anymore at this point in time, we still expect they can progress independently in CAMARA.

KDDI | QoS Booking The API template is available in PR#155 | METING UPDATE: Slide deck

Masaharu Hattori: Dedicated Network is focused on booking network resources, while QoD booking is related to book a quality session, independent to specific resources. Dev schedules just a QoD session to fulfill a required profile. Jan Friman Dedicated Networks is handling this use cases of booking resources to fill the needs of an app, closely related to this proposal Eric Murray proposal inherits from QoD API, but may consider a sue case overlap as booking resources. To discuss in Dedicated Network (Monday 16th 9UTC) |
