Hi Bjorn,

we briefly looked on the draft versions of this Standard previously. 
I am not aware if somebody is working on it at the moment. 
I am planning to prepare the models needed for it if nobody else does but it 
is not of a high priority at the moment in UK (but I am guessing that it will 
be soon).
I have actually prepared previously the esp-r climate file needed for this 
Standard using the 45+ pages of data in the available pdf file. The last 
version that I have is for 2006 - you are mentioning 2007 version at your 
email (is it the final?). Can you send me this version at a separate email, 
please?

I am happy to send the esp-r climate file to anybody who wants to work with 
these tests and help him/her to prepare the models. We can then place the 
models in the validation section of the Project Manager interface where they 
could be available to anybody.

Regards,
Georgios
