The EC is preparing a formal response. We have provided input to them. We have to wait and see.

But in my opinion VERY IMPORTANT to react upon ASAP especially for you FI-WARE guys is an on-line article that appeared yesterday on Tech Crunch: http://techcrunch.com/2014/03/18/why-is-the-european-commission-spending-e100m-on-a-pointless-hackathon/ Maybe you guys have already reacted, but I think the core message is to make sure there is a clearer understanding overall of how FI-WARE is being already deployed in real-world (various cities initiatives for instance) to provide the most convincing answer to the kind of "attacks" like this article is putting forward. Then, as briefly discussed with Nuria here in Athens, I noticed that there is an ongoing EC project that has very similar graphics / flyers / poster to what I've seen for some FI-WARE/FI-Lab material. You may want to check at: http://clout-project.eu/ Other than that I think here in Athens things are moving on very well. cheers, monique -- Dr. Monique Calisti Partner, Executive Director Martel Consulting Dorfstrasse 73 Phone: +41 (0)76 321 39 81<tel:%2B41%20%280%2976%20321%2039%2081> 3073 Gümligen Fax: +41 (0)31 994 25 29<tel:%2B41%20%280%2931%20994%2025%2029> Switzerland monique.calisti at martel-consulting.ch<mailto:monique.calisti at martel-consulting.ch> ======================================================== This e-mail, including attachments, is intended for the person(s) or company named and may contain confidential and/or legally privileged information.
