I went through the minutes of the working groups, Since the waypoints were confirmed accessible in the FMS/NMS databases the coordinates were removed from the Jepps Charts, and will be from the french charting as well.
The reason is to prevent insertion error at this stage.
Honeywell and INDS confirmed that from their side the points are active in all master databases; it is down to the plane manufacturer. G-Spot & flyby ; i do not know about your specific plane configuration, but I spoke yesterday to Sovereign and Collins equipped cessna pilots , they have the points in the database.

As for the approach in the database, Collins is leader on this, but we are working on declassifying the approaches ( as per Pan-Ops standard) in order to have no more Circle to land but approaches for each runway ( 35 & 17), then they will be codable and accessible directly; otherwise we have to wait for the next iteration of avionics and DSNA to comply with the latest classification ( scheduled November)
