@amilan17 I made a small typographic error in the Action Proposed section (thanks for spotting that @sebvi ). The text should refer to "entries 230 - 238"

@jitsukoh @amilan17 This branch is ready for the next step

@SimonElliottEUM please update the branch

SimonElliottEUM commented 2 years ago

@jitsukoh @amilan17 This branch is now really ready for the next step. I have updated the CSV file accordingly

jitsukoh commented 2 years ago

@SimonElliottEUM thank you for the update. @amilan17 I confirm that the branch is updated and the issue is moved to the validated status.

amilan17 commented 2 years ago

It's ready to merge. @SimonElliottEUM, please note that I removed "instrument" from the 3MI long name.

@SimonElliottEUM @jitsukoh 

For editorial consistency, I changed the agency names to be separated with "/" instead of " - " -- please review this diff asap.

@amilan17 thank you for the update. "/" seems like "or" but if it is the existing practice, I would agree to make them consistent.

SimonElliottEUM commented 2 years ago

@amilan17 @jitsukoh I agree with Jitsuko. Although " - " might seem clearer, we are better off staying with the existing practice and using "/".
