Dear Javier,

any news about the payment process?
I would like to point out that some of the new last partners of FI-Core 
did not receive yet any funding share or pre-financing for their work in 
the project, even if they had to bear non negligible expenses to acquire 
hardware resources.

Best regards,
Riccadro.
