• The Standards & Requirements Working Group (SRWG) also met in February, focused on endorsement of the third interim release of the AES Technical Blueprint.
   
• A brief has been issued for a proposal to undertake:
  
  1. an assessment of industry testing requirements
  2. a definition of a strategy, including an approach and initial plan, for industry testing.
