Title:	Review Work Program DTR/TSGT-02TFPG_U

Document for:	Discussion and decision

___________________________________________________________________________

TCR(21.904) is based on certain 3GPP core specifications.    More specificly its first release (version 3) should be based on Release 99 core specifications.    As a result, it is unavoidable to release TCR version 3 later than the version 3 releases of related core specifications which are expected to take place by the end of December plenary meetings with a few exceptions.

Although T2 SWG6 started to gather information from various WGs with regard to TCR and has been targeting to release TCR in December,  T2 SWG6 needs to collect further information from other WGs based on more stable core specifications.   From the past experience SWG6 learned that compiling information from WGs requires to send/receive LSs to/from other WGs to clarify various things.   It is very time consuming exercise.   With this in mind significant amount of time will be required.

On the other hand, TCR is expected to be a basis of TS34.123-2 Mobile Station Conformance Specification, Part 2 ICS (Implementation Conformance Statement).   T1 plans to update this document to version 3 in July ’00 (TP99167).    Therefore TCR update should be at the latest in line with TS34.123-2.  

My proposal is T2 supports the delay in Work Program DTR/TSGT-02TFPG_U and modify it as follows with the expectation that TSG T approves it in TSG T6 in December.
