<p class="MsoNormal">Dear all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Although the MP&S Blue Book is still not in CCSDS Agency Review yet, we now have a mature version of the book available. This is a reminder to provide your preliminary comments, from you or from others within your organisation. We can then
take the opportunity of the Spring Meeting next week, to perform a first WG discussion of the available RIDs. As such, please provide me your comments before next week Monday
<b><u>29 April</u></b>.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have attached the latest issue of the Blue Book dated 16 April. Compared to the previous issue (dated 6 March), some editorial changes were applied on request of the CCSDS Secretariat (requirements numbering aligned with the publication
guidelines). Also, some minor issues found during the prototyping were implemented (for example the error numbering). Other than that, there were no changes.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have also attached here a RID template. Please make sure that the date matches the date of the document you have reviewed (6 March or 16 April), such that we can trace the page and paragraph numbers correctly.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Dear all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As discussed in the WG meeting yesterday, I have attached here the latest draft of our Blue Book as input to the Agencies Review.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Compared to the Blue Book issue that we completed in July 2023, the current draft “Red Book” has undergone editing by the CCSDS Secretariat. In addition, we have incorporated feedback from the CESG in advance of the Agencies Review. I have
listed the most obvious changes:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0cm" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">All informative material regarding the Information Model was removed and will now be published in a separate Magenta Book.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">Sections 3 (now Services) and 4 (now Information Model) were swapped.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">References to the SANA registry were improved, in particular for the MAL and also for the NAV types used in the PRM.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">The Security Annex has been enlarged.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">Many comments of the CESG were incorporated (most of these resulted merely in clarifications).<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">A small number of bugs and inconsistencies were resolved.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I expect that the current issue of the book will be pretty close to the “official” one that will be made available for the Agencies Review. As such, each of you could start reviewing the current book in advance of the CCSDS Spring Meetings,
such that we can use the time to hopefully make progress on our internal comments.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
