     <body, standard> (ITU) ITU-T, the telecommunication
     standardisation sector of ITU, is responsible for making
     technical recommendations about telephone and data (including
     fax) communications systems for PTTs and suppliers.  Before
     1993-03-01 ITU-T was known as CCITT.  Every four years they
     hold plenary sessions where they adopt new standards; there
     was one in 1992.
  
     ITU works closely with all standards organisations to form
     an international uniform standards system for communication.

     data communications over telephone networks.  They publish the
     V.XX standards and X.n protocols.  V.21 is the same as
     EIA's EIA-232.  V.24 is the same as EIA's EIA-232C.
