If it was not clear from my notes (I sent them in raw mode, without reviewing, that's why I labeled them as "initial"): - Highs: Project well organized. Good and documented processes supported by tools. Conversations with UC projects established. But early to judge if it is fruitful. Deliverables acepted (we'll see how 9.1.1 will be managed) Clear commitment by people. - Lows: This project is special: they expect more than just good execution. Expect impact once results are delivered but huge noise (awareness, politically, in tech circles, business media) should be already happening and it's not. Nobody knows us beyond the circle of EU FP7. Not sure about commitment of companies. Want to see facts which demostrate that: in the short term getting more involved in awareness, in the medium term (and before the project ends) adopting part of the results. Seem that a few people are doing a lot, but we are an Army of 200+ people who wake up every day to work in a project like this. More involvement of all would help to deliver more. How are we going to gain awareness and get adopted by the wider community of developers to compite with the Googles and Apples? Need to work hard in exploitation. The FI-WARE Open Innovation Lab has to be carefully designed. I agree that the PCC should be called. Don't know how long will it take for the reviewers to send their evaluation report. Would be nice to have it soon at the PCC meeting but wouldn't delay meeting too much waiting for it.
