New Liaisons
The group seeks approval of several new liaisons
Reply to technical liaison from SA2 (network_id)
New liaison to 3GPP SA5, who have just started work on charging and accounting for WLAN interworking, informing them of our work. (similar liaison to previous one to SA1, SA2 and SA3)
Also to OMA chair and GERAN chair (recommended by H2 closing plenary)
Finish these liaisons by correspondence on the HL_3G mailing list, then seek approval through new process as outlined in BRAN31d112.
