[Fiware-wpa] threat for the adoption of the fi-ware testbed!

[stefano de panfilis]

dear all,

as you know the uc projects are studying the work we are doing and in many
cases, after an initial draft evaluation, really interested in adopting in
their prototypes our generic enablers.

here it comes a barrier at which we did not put initially too much
attention: it this the port on which the ges communicate.
in several case the port is not the standad one i.e. by default, a
corporate internet proxy will normally allow the standard HTTP/HTTPS ports
- 80 and 443.

this fact, although cannot be seen as a wrong or incomplete installation
per se, basically prevents sevareal uc to effectively use and integrate the
generic enablers they are interested in.
since the succes of fi-ware is fully based on the adoption of our
technologies (please ref. to the last review report), the above
circumstance making extremely difficult the validation by the uc projects,
basically poses fi-ware on the wrong side of success as the uc projects
will issue the concern the testbed is not usable ...!!!

to this extent i kindly ask you:
1. to change the communication port to be a standard port;
2. to complete this change by wednesday e.o.b this week (i.e. 10 october);
3. consequently to update the catalogue.

this way on thursday the tesbed team can validate the changes and than i
can communicate we have fixed this, i.e. to put the uc projects back in
front of their responsibility.

thank you in advance for your prompt collaboration on the matter.
please notify henar, miguel and me when done.

ciao,
stefano
