RA-2/MWR CCVT readiness status

• RA-2/MWR CCVT Rehearsal requirements
• It is recommended that the rehearsal focus on the
  "subscription" data distribution feature rather
  than the USF, as the former will be more heavily
  used in the commissioning phase.
• It is envisaged to rehearse the USF, as to check
  that glitches and anomalies have been fixed.
• Next rehearsal shall comprise RA-2/MWR Level 2
  data circulation to make RA-2/MWR CCVT
  participation meaningful.
• Next rehearsal will see the participation of the
  RA-2/MWR CCVT Data Circulation Coordinator only,
  representing the RA-2/MWR data user community.
• Participation of other RA-2/MWR CCVT volunteers
  is possible but not likely.
• It is envisaged that next rehearsal data
  circulation take place using the same delivery
  media (FTP,CD-ROM,etc.) as expected in the
  commissioning phase.
