Hi,

Again, there is the website mediafi.org and when you look at the
technologies (SEs) provided by the scenario you find the respective
contact persons.

Specifically of interest could be the HbbTV Application Toolkit and
maybe the SecondScreen Framework (see
http://mediafi.org/open-platforms/social-connected-tv/). I just noted
that these two are not Open Source (like all the core FIWARE
components). Do not get me started on why not :-(.

In general a good contact for the SmartTV scenario is Ralf Neudel
(Institut fuer Rundfunktechnik, Germany, neudel at irt.de).


Best,

	Philipp
