Hi Juanjo, unfortunately Friday I'm off the whole day, however to contribute to the discussion, I report in this mail my first impressions from the educational week, at least concerning the I2ND perspective (Hans might add his one to have a further opinion): - Attendance by UCPs to FI-WARE I2ND sessions: extremely poor! By looking at the participant lists, we expected to have about 8 people attending, we had a max of 3 people the second day, while the first one we had 2. We were 6 people from I2ND chapter, so if we were there just for this giving our presentations, it was not worth the travel costs and commitment! It's better we ask again to UCPs the actual commitment, if we discover no attendance for some GE presentation, we could drop them next time to save travel budget for some of us. - A preliminary feedback from the audience (statistics not very wide... 3!) told us that our presentations were useful to better understand the GE functionalities, what we are targeting (including constraints), and how they could be adopted to fulfill their needs. Some uncertainty on the capability to exploit in their projects those GEs not present in first FI-WARE release, i.e. nearly all: CDI, NEtIC, S3C. Officially they can't, as all the UCPs will end next year right before we deliver these GEs. - Presentations by UCP projects: I had the opportunity to follow only first presentation (OUTSMART) and partially FINSENY. I believe this is worth to have, as there can be good inputs from them on what are their challenges and how they define their architecture, although a better involvement of FI-WARE GEs would be expected. Would this mean that it is not so easy for them to understand the functionality offered, and the description we made, of GEs? Or didn't they dedicate enough time to understand them and possibly ask more detailed questions? For sure, it seems that relying only on requirements tickets, the circulation of information was probably not as much effective as expected. - One additional practical feedback received from audience: it is suggested to provide the presentation slides prior to the educ week, so they could start having a look at them to better elaborate questions later. I would suggest to give them the slides just before the presentation (max one day in advance), otherwise some contents might be misleading to their eyes, and they could start elaborating too many non-relevant questions that would not be generated during the presentation ;-) Besides my last sentence, I have understood talking to Carlos that we're going to provide the slides in these days, which means the second week attendants will have plenty of time to access them in advance. - Finally, a comment on sessions recording: I'm not aware if in other chapters this was possible (was it?), but recording the presentations for us was not done because we didn't have the required tools installed this time. I also consider it not strictly necessary, I would rather prefer that we record on purpose a presentation with some screen recording tool (like CamStudio), so that the speaker is sitting in front of the PC, can interact on the screen with the slides, and voice recording would be better than during a presentation in the room. BR Pier Da: fiware-wpl-bounces at lists.fi-ware.eu [mailto:fiware-wpl-bounces at lists.fi-ware.eu] Per conto di Juanjo Hierro Inviato: mercoledì 23 maggio 2012 12:04 A: fiware-wpl at lists.fi-ware.eu; fiware-wpa at lists.fi-ware.eu Oggetto: [Fiware-wpl] VERY IMPORTANT: Joint WPL/WPA follow-up confcall this friday - Actions from educational session week Hi all, I believe it is rather important to have a confcall dedicated to agree on some action points that we have to push not only on our side but also FI-PPP level, derived from the experience of this first Educational Session with UC projects. Tuesday-Wednesday next week, there is a meeting of the FI-PPP Architecture Board which presents a rather good opportunity to push those actions we may identify at FI-PPP level, i.e., require commitment from the UC projects. In order to find out a slot that may be suitable for all of us, I have setup the following doodle poll. Please cast your vote asap. Based on casted votes, I will send a call this evening: http://www.doodle.com/85h5p6ca6fc5qbb3 Following this email, I will send an email sharing my first thoughts on some action points we should implement. Off-line discussion before our confcall this Friday would allow to make it more productive.
