[FIWARE-ihubs-committee] URGENT: reviewers owning FIWARE expertise for evaluation of smart manufacturing open call

[Juanjo Hierro]

Hi all,

   For some strange reason, the mail address of Francisco seems like has 
not reached all of you?  Rather strange because it was in cc of my 
original mail.

   Nevertheless, here you are: Francisco Melendez 
<francisco.melendez at fiware.org>

   Please, those interested in joining the list of application 
reviewers, contact him directly, don't send a response only to me.

   I have already forwarded to Francisco the information of all 
candidates that sent their nomination only to me.  Indeed, there has 
been quite a good response despite this request came in such short 
notice.   We rather appreciate that.

   Cheers,

   Juanjo
