This RF nature is in the essence of this project and in accordance with the FI-WARE Grant Agreement and Consortium Agreement and cannot be a matter of discussion. It's a very fundamental principle of this project that was agreed even at proposal preparation time (i.e., 3 years ago). Hi all, I would like to emphasize this last statement by Luis. Actually, breaking the public and royalty-free nature of FI-WARE GE Open Specifications would be considered a infringement of the FI-WARE contract (Grant Agreement) and would certainly be considered in the approval or rejection of reported costs. Note that neither Luis nor me intend to respond any message from anyone questioning this. It's absolute out of questioning and we will not spend any more minute on the matter and we wouldn't recommend that you spend any minute either. I'm pretty sure that the technical and business managers from every partner are fully aware of this very basic principle in FI-WARE, so if you still have some doubts, you just need to double-check with them. I also want to emphasize that the deadline of Wednesday 22nd is absolutely final. We intend to close the wording of the Legal Notices at that date unless someone finds a big mistake/issue everyone would agree that has to be fixed (honestly, I can't guess which). Actually, we believe that the current draft is perfectly valid and complete. Of course, the path towards absolute perfection never ends, but precisely because we will be able to evolve contents of the Legal Notice in the future if found necessary, it's time to close NOW a first valid version of the Legal Notices that we can attach to the FI-WARE Open Specifications. Immediately afterwards, we will provide instructions as to attach one of the two defined Legal Notices to each of the FI-WARE GE Open Specifications. We will then define a deadline for binding the FI-WARE GE Open Specifications to any of the defined Legal Notices after which we will report to the EC what are the FI-WARE GE Open Specifications for which such request has not been met. The corresponding Copyright Holders will have to measure the consequences of not complying this request by the coordinator and the subsequent reaction by the EC.
