[Fiware-sustainability-proposal] fi-next gap finalisation

[stefano de panfilis]

dear clara,

i'm working on it with the help of the commission rigth now due to the
coordinator beneficiary change which requires several changes in the system
and in the doa.
i plan to finalise everything during the weekend as the commission would
like to validate everything on monday.

ciao,
stefano
