[Fiware-cloud] Fw: Portal GE?

[Alex Glikson]

Dear all,

FYI, we don't need to include Portal in the GEs described in our M9 
architecture deliverable (see below).

Regards,
Alex

Hi Alex,

  Answers below.  I copy the rest of WPLs and WPAs because I believe that 
answers are relevant to others.

Dear Juanjo, 

During our last weekly call this week, a question was raised whether the 
Portal that we are developing for Cloud is really a Generic Enabler, in 
the FI-WARE sense.. In particular, do we need an open specification for 
it? 
My initial opinion is that it is not.
For example, I'm not sure whether we really need to have a specification 
now that outlines the interactions between the user and the portal -- we 
don't want to limit ourselves to a specifc WebUI design. More importantly, 
such a specification would be of low interest for application developer. 
Would appreciate your view on this, as this affects the upcoming M9 
deliverable. 


a) We don't need an open specification for a portal, you are right
b) We don't need an Architecture Description for the portal either, 
although I presume there will be description of Main interactions in some 
of the Generic Enablers where it is useful to describe how interaction 
with a portal would take place
c) The portal should be part of the software release delivered and should 
be accompanied by the corresponding guides

  Hope it helps,

-- Juanjo

Thanks, 
Alex
