The new charter will be mentioned since the scope and list of key responsabilities have been amended.

A large part of the report will address the Manager interface, explaining what were the issues with the Property Package Manager interface specification within the Thermodynamics and Physical Properties interface specification, and how the design chosen for the Manager interface resolves these issues.

The report will also highlight the benefits from the comments received on the September 2021 version of the Chemical Reactions interface specification.
