APEX STANDARDS Automated 3GPP Email Tracking System
Et voilà! Amidst going bonkers, APEX received a
landslide of feedback asking for improvement since the very initial launch of the 3GPP Email Tracking System last month. Our team have worked hard since and now think it is time to provide an update, including:
• Search and filter by different working groups and subgroups, sender (person name), source (company), keywords in the subject line or email body, date range.
• Email results are sorted by recency.
• Original Email Links are provided at the last column of each row. To review emails in the original formatting, please click on each corresponding link.
• TDocs or Draft web links, as well as, their web file path (if any) are extracted and tabulated alongside each email, making it easy to navigate through drafts, files or check versions quickly and effectively. Sometimes, draft file or path links expire due to 3GPP moving files from draft folders to regular TDoc folders upon maturation. When in doubt, please visit the original email link.
• For sophisticated TDoc/TS/TR/State-of-the-Art analysis or topic research over time,
APEX 3GPP Analysis Platform can help. Contact us for a free trial.
• Along each Subject Line cell, you could refer to
Track Thread, which, when clicked, will take you to another window showing ALL emails and reflectors under that same subject line, allowing to figure out how people play ping pong..
• You could also hit
Track Sender,
Track Source or
Track WG in order to compare interests and positions by clicking through, w/o typing..
(yaah, one of the most popular features people asked for)
• New, incoming email-load-in may be subject to a 15-minute delay. When expecting, please refresh your browser.
• Email searching goes far back to a whoooping magical year,
1999. That means, yes, you could do digging throughout the entire history of 3GPP. The rest, relies on your
imagination.
• Internet etiquette applies. Please please please do NOT use robotic crawlers to pull results like crazy. APEX pledges to do her best and support this community, therefore rushing this Email Tracking System under resource constraints and now offering it to the community for free over the next couple months. Any malicious attacks can cause denial of service and jeopardize fellow delegates's access. So, please stay cool besides staying healthy. If you have special requests, we would love to connect or hop on the phone to hear your voice.
We wish the all of you and your family well and healthy :-)

Please accept our warmest regards from APEX STANDARDS (“APEX”) in California!
To this date, almost all of us have been impacted by the Covid-19 crisis worldwide, either health-wise, mental-wise at the home front, or, productivity-wise at the work front. Needless to say, many of us dearly miss the office, plus, the airports..
To help out, APEX positioned all resources and deployed an Automated 3GPP Email Analysis System (“System”) that allows to quickly track, identify sources of confusion, disagreements or bifurcation so delegates might survive a flurry of new emails every minute and respond timely during the E Meetings. The offering is also intended to give peace-in-mind to many small and medium sized teams, or single-timezone teams so when they wake up in the morning, they don’t have to be buried by hundreds of emails.
Many thanks to the kind understanding and generous agreements from APEX’s privileged clients, APEX is now able to completely open the System to the entire community. We can weather the challenges together.
The System is not designed to replace your Inbox, but an alternative way to step through, navigate and analyze certain topics when necessary.
The System is free, web-based and open to anyone should one wish to use. It is designed to provide a simple, clean and user-friendly view, as illustrated by the below screenshots. It supports all browsers across smartphones, tablets, Windows PC and MAC.
The System does not auto refresh in order not to interrupt user’s ongoing analysis. A user may follow updated emails by clicking the “Refresh” button on top of the page.
APEX respects your privacy. The System does not log any user activities or install cookies at your local browser.
This special program is laid out to stay effective in April and May. APEX will reassess by end of May.
Please do not use machine robots to crawl data from the System so other people can have reliable access. APEX reserves a right to deny malicious connections.
Please kindly let us know if we missed anything.
There is no need to advertise on behalf of APEX or speak regarding APEX from your company’s perspective. If the System helps you or your colleagues prepare better (while saving time for the beloved family during the crisis), APEX staff will be super happy. All we wanted to see: an efficient work-from-home experience, peace in mind, getting the job done, and ultimately, happiness for everyone.
We wish the all of you and your family safety, wellness and health, and hope to see you again in a not-so-distant future.
Please take care!
