2. "Standardization : The Bridge towards Ubiquitous World" GSC repository for events information GSC12_open_23 from ITU recognized that many PSOs and the ITU have a program of workshops and proposed that a central repository of information on events would be a resource for all those involved in organizing and wishing to participate in these events. It would help to avoid duplication/parallel activity and provides a one-stop shop for ICT standards events information enabling better planning for events attendance and a simpler way to find information. It would also allow interested parties to propose speakers/collaboration at an early stage and would allow proposals for partnerships (co-organizing etc) to be elaborated at an early stage. Since ITU hosts the GSC central repository (www.itu.int/ITU-T/gsc) the ITU offered to include on this repository the program of events of PSOs and other standards stakeholders.www.itu.int/ITU-T/gsc
