[Fiware-pcc] Feedback from EXFI Workshop

[thierry.nagellen at orange-ftgroup.com]

Dear Jose and Juanjo

Dear PCC members

 

There are high expectations regarding FI-Ware and here are some of the
most interesting questions

 

1-      Definition of Generic Enablers: which is the concrete level of
granularity of the GE

a.       My answer: first version of architecture will provide the
description of the GEs but the exact granularity will be define with the
features backlog for end of September

2-      Who will have access to the GEs?

a.       My answer (include what we have in the Collaboration
Agreement): the projects in the PPP will access to the GEs but the
specifications are open so anyone will be able to integrate its own
components as a FI-Ware GE with a standardized interface

3-      Integration of new requirements by Usage Areas which have no
projects in the PPP (especially AAL and eGov communities)

a.       My answer: we have some communications to the ICT community and
will integrate as much as possible what will be useful for SEVERAL Usage
Areas. The core-platform is built for cross domain activities, not a CP
for Transport or eHealth and so on

b.      But based on a discussion with Peter Fatelnik we have to think
how we could have dedicated relationships with these 2 communities. And
the Collaboration Agreement is a legal constraint. Peter has asked Petra
to think about it also

4-      Who will assume the governance of the open specifications,
especially after the end of the project?

a.       No concrete answer except that the Developers community should
assume that the Open Specifications will not disappear but we have not
defined the rules to extend the OS, to modify them...

5-      Missing part in FI-Ware: where are social medias? How to
interact with end-users because they are doing the Future Internet?

a.       My answer: at this moment, the end-users are behind the Usage
Areas projects, some topics in FI-Ware in Security or Applications
Mahs-Up or Cloud Proxy are closer to the people.

b.      Some interesting ideas about Personal Data Ecosystem... To be
discuss if this is really a missing part in FI-Ware at this moment,
based also on UA projects requirements.

6-      Open Calls

a.       Very good presentation from Nuria on the process we will apply.
Some questions regarding what kind of content (Generic Enablers only,
new technical chapter? Call for projects?)

b.      Answers: potentially could be new technical chapter but no
vision for the moment. For sure it is not a call for projects but for
expertise and knowledge to include new partners. More information would
be given during the next FI Week in October (we will know what is
missing)

 

Some actions for the next months

A-     Define a slot at the FI Week to introduce the 1st Open Call (end
of October)

B-      AAL community is organizing a workshop in November (with Concord
also - are you aware about that?) November 16th, 2011, Amsterdam. We
should have a technical presentation about GEs and status of Open
Specifications

C-      Governance body for the Open Specifications
