  • Standard Implementation/Specification: incorrectly lists the wrong version of the Telecommunication Standard Implementation Guide. It should be Telecommunication Standard Implementation Guide, Version D, Release 0 (Version D.0), August 2010.
  • Standard Implementation/Specification: The Telecommunication Standard, Implementation Guide Version 5, Release 1, September 1999 should be deleted.
