Hi Juanjo
we noticed that some modifications in the Data Visualization GE 
description we proposed were not integrated in the final version of the DoW.
On 1/10/2015 we sent you a document with some changes: I extracted the 
part with the changes I'm talking about in the attached document for 
convenience.
We would like to know why those changes were discarded or if we should 
provide some more details regarding SpagoBI evolution within FIWARE 
context (SpagoBI FIWAREness).
Thanks and best regards
Davide

>     iHub network.   They would get assigned the bounty programme
>     budget in order to deal with those payments (currently assigned to
>     TID until a beneficiary was identified).
>   * Inclusion of Infotec and Tecnológico de Monterrey to declare
>     activities where they are involved regarding the FIWARE community
>     (setup and operation of the FIWARE Lab node in Mexico,
>     contributions to work on Orion Context Broker, contribution to the
>     FIWARE-ready IoT devices programme, support to activities linked
>     to creation of a FIWARE community in Mexico).   The funding of
>     their activities would be provided by the Mexican government
>     without meaning any transfer of funding from the EC, therefore
>     affecting existing partners.

>   The EC welcomes very much the inclusion of these two partners in the

> validation process on time.
>
>   Despite the effect of including these two new beneficiaries in this 
> amendment is neutral to existing partners, we will carry out also a 
> vote regarding their inclusion.   For this reason, you will see there 
> are two specific columns in the shared google docs where you are asked 
> to cast your vote for this amendment.
