I'm not involved in MCOMM, but you can send a Liaison to ETSI MCOMM 
directly.

The next ITU-T SG17 meeting is March 10-19. I think the best thing to do 
is for you to provide me with the Action Plan and any associated 
information (such as introductory text explaining the kind of action 
you're expecting from the ITU-T). I'll ask one of the SG17 co-Chairmen 
to submit the material as a Temporary Document (it cannot be a 
Contribution, for OASIS is not an ITU Member).
The TD will be an input to the relevant Questions, that is probably, Q.9 
(Hoyt's Question) and Q.10 (Security).

Hoyt would get the TD submitted to the next ITU-T SG17.
