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.
