ITU and IETF do have a formal cooperation agreement. This does not mean that
either organization needs to do what the other says, but in the event IETF were
to choose to diverge, it would at least be polite to send a communication to
the relevante ITU-T study group (in this case, SG13) to indicate why. ITU-T
input should at least be given serious consideration.

My understanding is that these should be made available to IETF through a
public ftp site in the next few days. Material from Study Group 15 has been
shared in this way in the past. A similar mechanism is now being set up for
Study Group 13.
