[Fiware-wpa] Publication of the FI-WARE High-level Description document (Product Vision)

[Juanjo Hierro]

Hi,

  As you probably are aware, we have finished edition of the first public document of the project, namely the "FI-WARE High-level Description", also referred as "FI-WARE Product Vision".   A draft rather close to the final version was already available on July 6th and we have submitted it to the EC on August 15th.

  According to the current draft of the CA (unfortunately, not yet signed) this deliverable can be published if there is no objection by any party after 20 days the document was ready.   In addition, any objection could only apply to anything that was added from the draft available on July 6th.

  So unless I hear about any objection before Saturday September 3th, we will make it publicly available.

  Enclosed at the end of this mail you may find the text from the CA regulating publication of deliverables for your convenience.

  Best regards,

-- Juanjo

P.S.:  Honestly speaking, a period of 20 days is painful for public deliverables other than the GE specifications.   I will ask lawyers to reduce it to 10 days (at least for those cases where drafts have been circulated)


4.4.1    Publications

No Party shall have the right to publish or allow the publishing of any data which constitutes Foreground, Sideground, Background or Confidential Information of another Party, even where such data is amalgamated with such first Party's Foreground, Sideground, Background or other information, document or material. Any such publication without such other Party's written agreement justifies, in addition to any other available remedies, objection to the publication by the Party concerned in accordance with GA Article II.30.3.

a.- A copy of any   draft  of FIWARE Generic Enabler specifications shall be sent to the Project Coordinator and by the Project Coordinator to the Parties at the earliest time possible. Any of the Parties may object to the publication within 30 days after receipt of a copy of the proposed publication on any of the following grounds: (i) that they consider that the protection of the objecting Party's Foreground would be adversely affected by the proposed publication, (ii) that the proposed publication includes the Confidential Information of the objecting Party, or (iii) the publication of such information would be contrary to the commercial interests of the objecting Party. The proposed publication shall not take place until the expiry of the above period of 30 days. In the absence of any objection within the above mentioned period, it is deemed that the Parties agree to the proposed publication. Following the end of the above mentioned period, the Project Coordinator shall inform the Parties whether or not any objection has been received. Objections to publication of the final specifications of a Generic Enabler Specification will not apply if there were no objections to previously distributed drafts of FIWARE Generic Enabler Specifications, unless the changes between the draft and final version of the FIWARE Generic Enabler Specifications precisely provide the ground for the objection to publish the final version.
In the event that an objection is raised on any of the above defined grounds within the above period of 30 days, the Party proposing the publication and the Party objecting shall seek in good faith to agree a solution on a timely basis, that will not exceed of 30 days, whereby such objection is resolved. In case that the objection raised affects the publication of the FIWARE Generic Enabler Specifications (as defined in this Consortium Agreement) if no solution is found within the term established in this paragraph, the parties will submit the controversy to the General Assembly, which decision will be final and binding and in accordance with the confidentiality provisions established in this Consortium Agreement..

b.- The same rules as in 4.4.1.(a) shall apply for any other proposed publication in connection with or relating to the Project, but for such publications a period of 20 days shall be applicable
