Plan

October Project Board agreed in principle that the activity for this year should be converting the character set and upgrading rather than the further enhancements noted in phase 2's proposal. The team are to produce costed proposals for the Board's consideration. The review of v20 is still to be completed so that communications to the User Group can include what can be expected in the upgraded version this year as there will be benefits for the users. This is currently being scheduled to take place in December 2014.
