> - EAB ramaining effort (11MM) and budget is fully trasfered to TID for the time being (we will try to provide the right explanation to the EC). I guess that the partners should not mind whether this goes to TID or ENG as long as is it a pool for future reallocation. TID will try to discuss it with Arian asap and before sending amendment 4 to make sure that there are no further iterations
> - The new task 10.6 description, related to OIL, is not included in this WP10 amendment.
> - A further discussion in the PCC/GA will be about addressing who, when and how will address this topic.
> What we will do in next amendments (to be discussed)
> - We have a draft of 10.6 (wording + contributors) but we suggest to later consensuate it with more calm in WP10
> - The resource distribution is not feasible as we  discussed it (we were forced to react too quickly and the rules that we applied in our discussion are not valid). I wish it was so easy...
> In any case and in summary, yes, we need to take out T10.6 of amendment 4 and save it for future amendments. This is subject to whatever surprises we may encounter when we manage to get hold of Arian. Our assumption is that we will come to an arrangement similar to this but let us see.
>
> As regards your message at 14:16  today with subject "Re: [Fiware-testbed] FI-WARE: Amendment 4 - WP10 (new version required, excel and word)", it could be the basis for the contents of amendment 5 (maybe this is what you mean). But as we have insisted when talking between ourselves, the redistribution of work does not fit in the DoW like that. It is not our rules, it's Arian's rules, after 3 amendments we know. And we cannot  discuss it at this point, we need to close Amendment 4.   Important: I have not agreed to reinclude T10.6 in amendment 4 (we do agree to do it in amendment 5), it would stall the whole amendment if we do it now.

If you decide to change this it should not be so dramatic but I fear that we are acting against something agreed with more partners. On the other hand  I do not see that they should worry that much that the funding goes to one coordination level or the other.

> Blocking the amendment for this alone would be unwise so we must find a solution that satisfies everyone. As it seems that putting the 11 MM under TID with the commitment of re-distributing later would keep everyone happy, we can try. I would need to talk to Arian to see if they do not object and how to fit it in the DoW but that is minor, I guess that he will help.

> No. Juanjo has been unreachable these days due to the current situation (Arch week) and I haven't spoken to him since last week apart form a few seconds (and all about the Arch weeks, as you can imagine). When it was decided to change this the other day  I was a bit surprised but I thought that it was somehow agreed with Juanjo or there was a reasonable rationale. I did not complain because I have a certain degree of mutual understanding with Eng after all these years and when you are around I try not to create more problems than necessary, I simply trusted you that there was a reason why.
>
> But this has to be clear. I never said that this had to be split in this amendment and was pretty happy with putting in Eng's hands this resources until the next one. I enclose one of the emails where I stated it. I also sent Andrea  the message from Juanjo with the excel file distributing resources and tried to explain it. I believe that there is a misunderstanding here but this can be fixed now. When I heard that you wanted to split resources nearly in the last day, then I understandably needed to said that TID wanted our share as we are doing part of the work.   In this context, I also had first understood that the OIL task was also for another amendment. So again, when Stefano showed me at the end of Monday that this was being added I thought that it was a bit rushed but I simply tried to help and not to add trouble.
>
> Maybe you understand now why I was not reacting so quickly yesterday (apart from other factors that I will not mention, calculating MM is not part of my normal duties and this was a bit unexpected for me - I did not have the time to pass it to the right section, but I needed to check internally the rates! In fact, I was forced to guess and made a mistake using an old rate). I know now what happened.
>
> Let us try to understand each other, this is simple if explained. It is not a matter or willing to contribute or not, what we are discussing is when to distribute the resources. And at this stage we were trying to simplify because this amendment is endless (there are many WPs and many things to deal with)
>
> Andrea, please do not see bad intentions, we are honestly trying to close things and to arrange everything in reasonable terms for everyone. It is simply that things go too fast and sometimes the info does not flow well.
>
> I understand that coordinating WP10 is not easy and that your responsibility is a bit heavy. But I would really appreciate it if you could try to be as flexible as you can to help Javier; Eng has coordinated things as complex as QualiPSo, you know how hard can it get sometimes.
