[Fiware-wpa] IMPORTANT: Extension of the FI-WARE project duration to 41 rather than 40 months

[Juanjo Hierro]

Dear all,

  The EC has requested that the extension of the FI-WARE project duration be up to month 41 (i.e., end of September) rather than month 40 (end of August) as previously foreseen when we discussed amendment 6 of the contract.   Please find below the request from our PO.

  This is because the Campus Party Europe, where prizes for the second round of FI-WARE Challenges will be given away, will take place at the beginning of September.

  I guess this is not a major issue so we will implement the extension up to end of month 41 in amendment 6 unless reasonable objections are raised before this Thursday noon.  Note that this indeed doesn't affect at all those partners who had planned to stop contributing by end of month 36 (i.e., end of April).

  Best regards,

-- Juanjo Hierro

To add to the email below:

Since we agreed that the current FI-WARE contests will distribute prizes during Campus Party Europe in September, and since this is part of the FI-WARE grant agreement and should therefore be covered by the FI-WARE project, you need to extend until – at least – end of September 2014.

Best regards,
Arian.

Subject: FI-WARE: need for amendment request letter

Dear all,

Amendment 6 will change this, but currently FI-WARE will officially end at the end of this month.

In order to prevent termination at the end of this month, we need an amendment request letter in which you ask for an extension. The letter does not have to be perfect, and perhaps needs to be completed/corrected in a later stage, e.g. for the new partners. Alternatively, you ask for an extension only now, we process, and the other changes will come in amendment 7.

The issue is that we need to have a request for amendment – documented and in our systems –, asking for an extension, DURING the lifetime of a project. Without such letter, the project will be terminated on April 30.

Best regards,
Arian
