ITU-T

From Wikipedia

ITU-T is the telecom standardization organization, previously known as CCITT, of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). It issues recommendations that have names like X.500, where X is the series and 500 is a serial number.

See ITU-T's own website, http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/
