November 20, 2006 E-Mail received from Eschelon Hi, I'm ok to close all 20.0 CRs except SCR121305-01 Implement XML Interface for IMA EDI. I would like for this to remain in CLEC test until we have some users actually in production on this. At this time there is no one in production yet. So we can not really say how its going or say we have given it a fair test. Thanks Steph Stephanie Prull EDI Business Analyst Eschelon Telecom, INC

Jill Martain-Qwest stated that we will include everyone’s top 2 candidates in the meeting minutes. Lynn Stecklein-Qwest reviewed the prioritization instructions. She said that Qwest will distribute the Prioritization Form by 5 p.m. MT on February 20, 2006. She said that the completed Prioritization Form should be submitted to cmpcr@qwest.com no more that 3 business days following Qwest’s distribution of the prioritization form. Lynn said that the total point will be calculated by the Qwest CMP Manager and the results will be distributed to the CLECs within 2 business days following the submission of the ranking and no later than 5 p.m. on February 27, 2006. Sharon Van Meter-AT&T asked if Qwest could explain how the highest point value works and how, for example, number 21 would be the top choice. Lynn Stecklein-Qwest said that the highest point value (i.e. 21) should be assigned to the CR that Qwest and CLECs wish to be implemented first. She said that the next highest point value (i.e. 20) should be assigned to the CR that Qwest and the CLECs wish to be implemented second and so on. Bonnie Johnson-Eschelon explained that we go through this exercise to take into consideration what the other CLECs top priorities are so that as each CLEC votes they could take into consideration the other CLECs top 2 as well instead of just ranking their top 2 and then going down the list. Jeff Sonnier-Sprint asked if the ballot would have a ‘Point Value’ Column. Jill Martain-Qwest said that the ballot would have the ‘Point Value’ Column and that instructions would be included with the notification. Bonnie Johnson-Eschelon asked what the IMA 20.0 capacity was, hinting at 75,000 hours Jill Martain-Qwest said that the IMA 20.0 capacity is 7,500 hours.

-- July 20, 2005 Systems CMP Meeting Discussion for IMA 19.0 Prioritization CR Review: Jill Martain - Qwest stated that we provided a list of all candidates for IMA 19.0 in the June Meeting. Jill said that for this month’s prioritization, instead of reviewing all candidates, we would like to trial reviewing the top two candidates per CLEC. Liz Balvin-Covad asked why the Covad CR was not on this list. She said that she submitted it before the June 1st cutoff. Lynn Stecklein-Qwest said that the CR was a Product/Process CR not a System CR.

Below are the top two candidates per CLEC: Qwest #1 SCR061703-01 Create new fields of OCC and OCCNA on the LSR and DL Forms to identify old Service Prov #2 SCR052303-02 Request to Implement Interactive Agent Issue 3

AT&T #1 SCR051304-01 Request for Line Loss Notification to Notify CLECs if the Cust was lost to a Wireless Carrier #2 CR040204-01 PreOrder and Order Error Message When NPA NXX Does not Belong to Qwest

Liz Balvin-Covad asked if the Interactive Agent Issue 3 should be an Industry Change. Liz said that Qwest is not supporting Issue 2 anymore. Liz said that she was asking because the software won’t work going forward. Steph Prull-Eschelon said that if the Interactive Agent goes bad they would be in trouble as the vendor does not have to support it and EDI would be down until the new version was installed Jill Martain-Qwest stated that we currently don’t have it as an Industry Change and noted that the Industry Change CRs would still need to be voted upon and prioritized.

CLARIFICATION MEETING - April 30, 2004

Introduction of Attendees: Liz Balvin-MCI, Patti Kwapniewski-MCI, Aaron-MCI, John Gallegos-Qwest, Angela Stewart-Qwest, Lee Gomez-Qwest, Anne Robberson-Qwest, Peggy Esquibel-Reed-Qwest

Review Requested (Description of) Change and Discussion: Peggy Esquibel-Reed-Qwest reviewed the CR’s Description and Expected Deliverable: MCI requests that Qwest support 16 a/n characters for the PON field for the product Facility Based Directory Listings (FBDL). The Expected Deliverable is that for REQTYP JB, Qwest expand the PON field from 11 a/n characters to 16 a/n. Liz Balvin-MCI stated that MCI thought it was odd that when testing the PON that it was not at the Industry Standard. Liz stated that the documentation does indicate that it is an 11 character field but noted that other Qwest forms have a 16 character PON Field. Liz stated that is the reason for MCI submitting this Change Request. Liz Balvin-MCI stated that she had heard that the 11 character limit was originally due to a back-end system that Qwest used to use. Liz stated that she believes that the use of that back-end system has changed. Peggy Esquibel-Reed-Qwest asked if MCI was encountering specific problems that prompted this request. Patti Kwapniewski-MCI stated that to code for a form that is unique adds additional coding for MCI. Patti stated that MCI adds intelligence within the PON to identify items such as the originating system, order, state, etc. Patti stated that MCI needs to re-think the unique coding and intelligence for a specific form. There were no additional questions or comments.

Establish Action Plan & Resolution Time Frame: Peggy Esquibel-Reed-Qwest stated that this CR is due for presentation at the May 20, 2004 Systems CMP Meeting, by MCI.
