OCCI folks, I am passing this message and inquiry on without comment. (OGF always remains neutral but is happy to provide letters of support to any external funding agency proposal.) Alan Begin forwarded message:

From: Nick Kaklanis Subject: OGF collaboration in H2020 Date: March 26, 2014 at 9:08:32 AM EDT To: Cc: , , Dionisis Kehagias , Nick Kaklanis

Dear OGF Chair,

My name is Nick Kaklanis and I am a researcher at CERTH-ITI (http://www.iti.gr/).

In CERTH-ITI we are preparing a new H2020 proposal under ICT-7 "Advanced Cloud Infrastructures and Services".

Currently the consortium has been almost finalised, including 3 R&D partners, 2 cloud provider companies, 2 cloud consumer companies and one integrator. We would like also to have a standardisation body in the consortium. Thus, we would like to invite you to participate in the consortium with OGF. Attached you may find a summary of the proposal. If necessary, you may forward it confidentially to any other person in OGF (e.g. anyone involved in cloud computing standardisation activities).

In case you need more details on the CLAUDIUS proposal, feel free to contact me at any time.

Looking forward to your decision.

Best regards, Nick
