Just a completely informal note: we are also finishing all the work now as planned, in original schedule. Anyhow we are not 'withdrawing', just because am not aware of any reason to do so. I understood that the EC asked for the project to extend and it is fine for us to be available for support and possible other requests regarding our GE and WP during the extension. Also the GEi will probably develop further in normal business during the period so we can probably then package it also as a new fi-ware release even though the funding is out. Specifically I'm under the impression that whether to be in the extension or not does not affect payment schedules, especially possible interim payments that I hope we who joined via Open Call 2 can get at some point. Hopefully am not wrong here..
