CP1335 ‘Mandating use of Auxiliary Meter Technical Details Data flow’ is no longer included in the scope of the February 2011 Release. On 17 January, the SVG and ISG agreed (by correspondence) that CP1335 should instead be implemented on 3 November 2011, as part of the November 2011 Release.

This aligns the implementation of CP1335 with a related DTC CP which was deferred by the MRASCo Development Board on 5 January.

The SVG and ISG papers are published in the table below. They are also available under Meetings & Papers as part of the ISG120 and SVG120 documentation.

Business Requirements Solution

There is no Business Requirements Solution (BRS) document for the February 2011 Release, as the redlined changes required to deliver each approved Change Proposal have been approved and are available from the Amended Configurable Items section below.
