It may be worth pointing out that CLEI codes (along with other
Telcordia Common Language(TM) products) have been adopted as
identifiers in ANSI standards, and there is a proposal on the table
to add mappings of these ANSI standards to ITU-T Rec. M.1401.  See
T1M1.3/2003-032, a URL for which is in the attached message from the
T1M1.3 mail exploder.
