 LOCATION SERVICES TS 22.071   LCS Stage 1 (for GSM and UMTS)
TS 03.71     LCS Stage 2 for GSM
TS 23.171   LCS Stage 2 for UMTS
Location Services is a feature providing the ability to localize a terminal (MS - Mobile Station in GSM and UE - User Equipment in UMTS). This location information is used to provide services to the end-user (e.g. to offer a local map with indication of closest restaurants, etc), for emergency services or for “internal clients”, i.e. a UMTS network entity, like an RNC to direct the beam when space diversity is used (not used at least up to Release 6).
 3GPP WID in

TS 23.226: Stage 2
Global Text Telephony (GTT) is a feature that adds the capability to use real time, character by character text conversation. One important reason to offer the GTT is to enable emergency service access to people who are depending on a written dialogue.
3GPP WID for LCS in Rel-5 in 
SP-010518 
LCS ENHANCEMENTS 1 (Rel 5) In Rel5, LCS is possible for the GERAN when the Iu is used for circuit switch (CS) and packet switch (PS) modes, as well as when the Gb is used (for PS mode). 
UTRAN improvements: UE Positioning Enhancements for 1,28 Mcps TDD, Open SMLC-SRNC Interface within the UTRAN to support A-GPS Positioning.
General improvements: Specification for the Le Interface between the external client and the network., Event driven deferred LCS request, also referred as Event based and Periodic LCS., Enhanced support for user privacy and subscriber data handling.

3GPP WID in 
SP-010572 and 
SP-020687 
Speech Recognition and Speech Enabled Services (Rel6) This feature will allow people to use speech-driven services to access information. It is seen as particularly suitable for the small portable mobile devices used in UMTS.
3GPP WID in 
SP-030039  
Priority Service (Rel6) There is a need to provide to authorized users (e.g. military, civil authorities) a preferential access to the network during crisis situations when the service might be restricted due to damage, congestion, or other faults. 
The objective of this WI is to provide a secure and manageable mechanism to identify priority users and mark and guarantee their communications from access and call set up through to call completion.  In the case of communications terminating on a mobile device, priority service includes priority egress. 
3GPP   Enhanced Multi-Level Precedence and Pre-emption Service (eMLPP) Stage 1 in TS 22.067
Stage 2 in TS 23.067
Stage 3 in TS 24.067

3GPP WID in 
GP-030443  
Support of Conversational Services in A/Gb mode via the PS domain (Rel6) The overall goal is to introduce support for conversational services in the PS domain in A/Gb mode with a minimal impact on existing systems and standards. The current functional split of the protocol architecture between core and radio access network will be maintained.
3GPP WID in 
SP-030341  
(U)SIM security reuse by peripheral devices on local interfaces (Rel6) The main objective of this feature is to study the feasibility of diverse usage models (e.g., accessing 3GPP system and WLAN simultaneously) including the model with multiple external (wired or wireless) interfaces from a security point of view, and to realize these models without incorporating significant changes to the infrastructure.
3GPP WID in
