Implemented SCRs:

SCR 621 Links to the technical evaluation (by ISOC) are added to the web-pages with the TAC review information.

Fixed SPRs in core v12.12:

OSS:

SPR 856 In the Pattern Calculator GUI, the roll angle column was not displayed when viewing the table in Galactic coordinates in combination with decimal notation.
SPR 863 The observations from AO5 monitoring proposals did not had a COP move.

PHS:

SPR 862 When generating proposals for PGT submission using PHS, the start fixed time fields were not reset. This has now been solved.
SPR 864 When modifying the pointings of an observation and selecting to create a custum raster, the drop down menu next to "Wandering COP" did not show sensible options.

Fixed SPRs in PGT v5.6:

SPR 822 Updating the batch-script to start PGT so it works when PGT is installed on a drive other than the C-drive (under Windows).
SPR 833 The GUI did not switch to the correct mode after opening a proposal file. This has now been fixed.
SPR 861 When opening a proposal file into PGT, the correct fields (emin, emax and line energy) are now greyed out. is much less used.
SPR 868 PGT now prevents browsing through observations when an invalid coördinate is filled in.
SPR 869 The data entered in the CoI field was lost if the proposal is saved to disk and then read in again. This has now been fixed

Implemented SCRs in PGT v5.6:

SCR 603 Removing out of date fields.
SCR 608 PGT now has checking on entered flux values.
SCR 614 PGT now warns with a nice message when an obsolete file is loaded.
SCR 617 PGT now has checking on entered photon index values.
SCR 625 Including ability to copy a given observation N times.
SCR 626 Adding to the delete functionality the abilty to specify a range of observations.
SCR 637 The default file format for uploading the scientific justification is now PDF instead of PS.
SCR 642 A unique identifier for the field of interest is added to the observation panel.

Fixed SPRs in PLD v5.2:

SPR 858 Observations of an updated proposal had null TM values. Now they are initialised to ISOC defaults values.

Implemented SCRs in PLD v5.2:

SCR 618 The default value for the visual magnitude is now null instead of 0.
