Dear Fano,

I've removed the rest of recipients to avoid overwhelming their mailbox
with specific expressions of interest. Please feel free to forward my email
to any potentially interested colleague.

Thank you very much for showing interest in WireCloud during the FIWARE
educational sessions, and for taking the initiative with this email. At
least two additional projects showed interest in the platform, including
Finest, so we are very excited about starting our collaboration.

We've been working hard during last months to change the architecture of
the platform and its interfaces, so as to ease its integration with FIWARE
GEs (USDL, marketplace, store, repository and even the Pub/Sub broker) and
to align it with the specification of the composition editor and execution
GEs.

We've also tried to make the most of this effort (and opportunity) by
introducing some major updates to the platform itself. We've changed the
metaphor used for wiring and piping (i.e. the wiring editor) and we've
developed a pub-sub broker that can be plugged in the platform and used
through its javascript pub-sub API in order to easily develop event-driven
widgets and mashups.

This is why we've postponed the launch of the "sandbox" deployment and test
accounts we promised during the meetings. The preparation of the first year
review of FIWARE also helped to increase the delay :-(

Nevertheless, we're about to release an almost stable version of the
platform. We plan to deliver that almost stable version by July the 20th,
and the next release of the platform by August the 1st, with many
improvements in usability (live tutorials on how to create a mashup by
wiring and piping widgets and operators, a -still quite small- catalogue of
generic, fully-documented widgets and operators, as well as some pre-built
mashups, etc.).

Please follow us in

http://conwet.fi.upm.es/wirecloud/

and let me get back to you in a few days with more information about those
test accounts.

Besides, we will try to attend the confcall next week and follow the
proposed process.

In the mean time, we could start working together in the definition of a
simple scenario in which Wirecloud can be useful to deliver some
functionality of Outsmart to its end users. WireCloud (like any other
composition tool, or even more, bearing in mind it targets end users) is of
little use without a catalogue of widgets and operators that can be
considered useful for those users. Some can be considered generic (maps,
statistical graphs, etc.) but most of them need to be considered specific
for a given domain or project. Do you have any information that could serve
us for this purpose or, even better, can you imagine a simple scenario
where the Outsmart end user could be empowered by allowing her to pick some
widgets and operators from a catalogue and mash-up them to obtain a useful
information or control dashboard in the context of the Outsmart project.

It could even be a good idea to consider such scenario in the context of
FIWARE WP3's releases. Let me check with WP3 leader (SAP).

Best regards,
Javier
