All the vendors who have current committed to participate have indicated the new dates of 16-27th of July are suitable so that is now the new target date for this round of interoperability testing. Thanks for the quick feedback and for everyone being willing to adjust the date to accommodate other vendors schedules. If there are suggestions on ways to improve the collection and reporting of the results please send them either to myself or to the list as a whole. Absent any feedback we will use the same approach we did in January with each vendor filling in a results spreadsheet. Based on last round I think it is important to plan to re-run the tests near the end of the second week to verify results. If everyone could confirm their systems are reachable and that the correct ports are open for access that should help with getting the testing operating. For those vendors behind corporate firewalls please ensure you can get port 5696 opened for outgoing access as most vendors are now using the officially allocated port. Thanks, Tim.
