[Fiware-webui] Review and GEs

[Sami J]

Hi,
below is the original "refocus" message if you also had problems to view it.

Br,
Sami
-------------------------
Dear Juanjo,
Further to our conversation during the FIWARE Accelerator meeting in Paris
on 12 June, I summarise below the main guidance for the upcoming review of
the FI-CORE contract.
To review the activities of FI-CORE is critically necessary in order to
refocus the project on todays priorities of the FIWARE programme and to
allow the project to stay relevant, efficient and effective. The outcome of
this may lead to an amendment of the contract with a revised technical
annex.
Considering the clear forward-looking objective of this ad-hoc review, it
will deviate to some extent from the regular review process and focus less
on progress achieved, checking deliverables and matching resources to plans
(this will be done in the next annual review). Rather the specific topics
for the review will concentrate on key project activities crucial for the
success of the project and the FI-PPP Phase 3. The agenda of the ad-hoc
review meeting and the conversation with the experts, the Commission
services and the project team, will address:

   - *Quality of the existing set of enablers*. How best to reach a
   production level quality on all enablers on offer. Consider a
   'service-level agreement'-like support for developers for a high level
   technical support to developers and accelerators.
   - *The capacity of the FIWARE Lab* to satisfy the needs of the startups
   and SMEs in phase 3 and its evolution to pre-commercial services. Provide a
   reliable plan to ensure that the recent bottlenecks in networking and
   computing performance will not occur again. This may require a higher
   allocation of resources to this task. Provide appropriate access to open
   data sources linked into FIWARE Lab and the open access to this
   experimental sand-box environment by anybody (trial and community users).
   Present a clear plan for the use of the resources dedicated to the open
   call (10% of the overall budget). Notably in the context of increased
   communications and the support for pre-commercial FIWARE Labs.
   - *Sustainability*: Launching and supporting the open source community
   with sufficient support and resources to make it successful.  The setup of
   a foundation before year end and the transition of FIWARE in a foundation
   led initiative. Enlarge the industrial commitment with companies interested
   to become long-term partners in the FIWARE foundation and support the open
   source community.
   - *A communication strategy* which focusses on communicating a
   product-like image of FIWARE, supports the open source community and
   launches a social media campaign to reach out world-wide.

The documentation necessary for this ad-hoc review should be short but
convincing in order to provide a conclusive view of the changes required at
this stage and to ensure that FI-CORE fulfils the strategic tasks necessary
for the PPP phase 3. Please deliver input documents around those topics at
least 10 days before the review takes place.
I expect that FI-CORE as project will adhere to the new work plan as of 1
July 2015. Therefore, please initiate the necessary instructions to the
consortium partners to halt work in areas likely to be restructured.
Finally, please make sure that this note reaches every beneficiary of the
FI-CORE contract.
Kind regards,
Jesus Villasante
