NANC Future of Numbering (FoN) Working Group

The Future of Numbering (FoN) Working Group, led by Co-Chairs Hoke Knox and Karen Mulberry, aims to investigate changes in telephone numbering due to new technologies, market influences, and regulatory shifts. The group will analyze emerging trends, propose modifications to numbering administration, and assess the feasibility of various approaches. FoN WG members will address issues such as number conservation, national security concerns, and potential impacts on 10-digit dialing. Regular meetings are scheduled to discuss findings and recommendations for the North American Numbering Council (NANC). For details on meetings and reports, visit nanc-chair.org.
