[Fiware-testbed] R: Re: FI-WARE: Amendment 4 - WP10 (new version required, excel and word)

Dear Miguel,

I asked Juanjo to be more explicit about his remarks in the call.

I was not either, and I understood from the Stefano feedback that he was 
willing to have the 10.6 included in this amendment.

A final word from Juanjo is welcome and extremely useful.

Juanjo, do you or not want to include the new task in this amendment as 
proposed by me/ENG?
Do you or not agree to reserve the 11MM effort/83K funding to TID 
instead of ENG for further redistribution later on?

Best,

A.
