Please push members of your WPs/Chapters to carry out this task force. Cheers, -- Juanjo -------- Original Message -------- Subject: VERY IMPORTANT TASK TO COMPLETE ASAP BY ALL FI-WARE GEi owners: Use Terms and Conditions linked to FI-WARE GE implementation products Date: Tue, 20 Nov 2012 08:25:47 +0100 From: Juanjo Hierro <jhierro at tid.es><mailto:jhierro at tid.es> To: fiware at lists.fi-ware.eu<mailto:fiware at lists.fi-ware.eu> <fiware at lists.fi-ware.eu><mailto:fiware at lists.fi-ware.eu> Dear colleagues, As announced last Friday, we have already created a new tab on "Terms and Conditions" for each entry in the FI-WARE Catalogue. We have developed a powerpoint presentation describing the overall approach to be followed to update FI-WARE Catalogue entries, plus a .docx guide containing paragraph templates you may use to complete the task. You cand download both from: * https://forge.fi-ware.eu/docman/view.php/27/1649/Approach+on+FI-WARE+Terms+and+Conditions+beyond+the+FI-PPP+and+lifetime+of+the+project++12-11-15.pptx * https://forge.fi-ware.eu/docman/view.php/27/1650/FI-WARE+Use+Terms+and+Conditions+12-11-20.docx We need this task force to be completed before the FI-WARE Project Review scheduled for November 28-29. As already mentioned (see previous mail attached to this one), this task force is key to address one of the most critical requirements by the EC about sustainability of FI-WARE GE implementations (also probably the most relevant checkpoint that will be evaluated by the EC and the reviewer during our next review). FI-WARE GEi owners are asked to provide contents for the new "Terms and Conditions" tab and also update the contents of the "Instances" and "Downloads" tabs as soon as possible. Providing contents to the "Experimentation/testing within the scope of the FI-PPP" section under the "Terms and Conditions" tab would be mandatory prior the review meeting (this means just adding a standard text provided in the .docx guide above). You must also place the entries describing current instances that are listed under the "Instances" tab within a section titled "Experimental instances" which should start with the paragraph proposed in the .docx guide. Besides, you must add the paragraph proposed in the .docx guide to the "Downloads" tab. Last but not least, it will be highly desirable that you also incorporate a section on "External availability" under the "Terms and Conditions" tab before the review meeting. Check the .docx guide for suggested paragraph templates. If you cannot provide this on time for the review, you should inform us prior to the review meeting when you plan to publish the contents for such section on the FI-WARE Catalogue. We will share that info only to the EC and reviewers during the review. Please do so by means of completing the following spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AqGGeaQGro3fdDdGQnl1eTRSLXdRSHd5cHd4LUhnOFE If you believe the info in that spreadsheet is not accurate and needs to be updated (e.g., name of the FI-WARE GEi), don't hesitate to do so. Note that the complete contents of the "Use Terms and Conditions", including the section on "External availability", must be clear before delivery of the FI-WARE 2nd Release on the FI-WARE Testbed, i.e., launch of the FI-WARE Open Innovation Lab. However, the EC has requested that the "Use Terms and Conditions" get published definitively earlier than the start date of the 2nd Phase of the FI-PPP, which is scheduled for April 2013. Concretely, the EC would like to see that the contents published in the "Use Terms and Conditions" tab for each FI-WARE GE implementation (GEi) brings enough information that express clear commitment by the corresponding FI-WARE owner on sustainability of the FI-WARE GEi outside the scope of the FI-PPP (External Availability) before a meeting with Mrs Neelie Kroes, scheduled to take place at the beginning of 2013 (no date is fixed yet).

I guess this means most if not all of you :-) I'm sending it to the fiware mailing list rather than only to the FI-WARE WPLs and WPAs to make sure that it arrives you as soon as possible. As you may know, one of the key concerns raised by the EC regarding FI-WARE is the sustainability of FI-WARE GEs not only within the FI-PPP program but also external to the FI-PPP and beyond the lifetime of the FI-WARE project. Indeed, one of the checkpoints that the EC and reviewers have marked as critical for the project review specifies the following: For each GE reference implementation: documentation should be provided that states the conditions under which it will be made available to FI-PPP programme participants and third parties beyond the lifetime of FI-WARE In order to cope with this request we will implement a number of changes in the FI-WARE Catalogue targeted to provide a new tab where FI-WARE GEi owners will be able to state the "Use terms & conditions" that will apply to their FI-WARE GEis: * for Experimentation/testing within the scope of the FI-PPP * for use under the umbrella of the FI-WARE Open Innovation Lab (check description of the FI-WARE Open Innovation Lab in the DoW) * for any other use (External availability) Enclosed, you will find a presentation and accompanying document that provide a detailed description of the approach to follow. The target goal is that the structural changes in the catalogue will be ready early next week. Following to that, FI-WARE GEi owners are asked to provide contents for the new tab and also refine contents of the "Instances" and "Downloads" tab as soon as possible. It will be highly desirable that it will be before the FI-WARE M18 Project Review scheduled for November 28-29, 2012. Otherwise, be able to deliver at the meeting a target date at which use terms and conditions for external availability will be published. Note that "Use Terms and Conditions" should be clear before delivery of the FI-WARE 2nd Release on the FI-WARE Testbed, i.e., launch of the FI-WARE Open Innovation Lab. You will find detailed guidelines that may help you in fulfilling this request in the attached .docx.
