Hi everyone,

   The spreadsheet we shared with you included a tab "Additional 
contacts partners" that should be empty, even be deleted.   Please find 
enclosed a new version of it, with that tab deleted, just to avoid any 
confusion.  Please replace the one we sent to you in the first place 
which the one attached in this mail.

   For the avoidance of doubts, you only have to fill *one column* in 
the tab "Efforts and figures".

   We recommend that you fill row 4 (description of partner no. 1) in 
the tab "Basic partner info" and column H (efforts corresponding to 
partner no. 1) in tab "Efforts and figures".

   As mentioned in my previous mail, you don't need to estimate efforts 
in WP1 nor WP2.  We will come with a proposal on PMs within WP2 for each 
of you.

   Again, and as a reminder, please send the requested info to Alberto 
Abella <alberto.abella at fiware.org> copying me. Please use "Re: URGENT 
and IMPORTANT: Forms and info requested for joining the European Cloud 
Marketplace proposal DIGITAL-2021-CLOUD-AI-01-DS-MARKETPLACE-CLOUD" 
(that is, simply Reply to the subject of this message).  This is 
extremely important so that we can easily find out your replies in our 
Inbox.

   Best regards,

   Juanjo Hierro
