I'd venture to add that the message is a prime example of what makes so
much of our documentation crap:

The assumption that 4,000 people all know and agree on what SRS means.
How much other content does this person write where it is assumed that
something is known without establishing it.

At worst case, we all know that the first use of an acronym should be
spelled out.
