[Fiware-webui] Comments, please, on Orion Context Broker vs POI Data Provider

[Philipp Slusallek]

Hi,

Thanks a lot Ari, this is helpful.

One request, could you compile a list of features that are available in
POI that are not or not well supported in CB? Also, Maybe you cab thik
about what would be needed to support this in CB.

This way we could boil the issue down to a list of very specific
pros/cons. This is what would also be helpful for the CB people if they
want to extend what they are doing now.

But it seems clear that there are important differences and that it
makes sense to keep POI.

Lets discuss this later in some more detail.


Best,

	Philipp
