The first review recommended that greater emphasis should be placed on communication and explanation of the project outcomes; this was addressed during the second year of D4Science through
Clearer explanation of the origin and aims of the project at the website (http://d4science.eu/about)
Better description of the Virtual Research Environments (VREs) (http://d4science.eu/aquamaps)
New videos helping contribute to the overall understanding of the project (http://www.blip.tv/file/1912552)
New gCube website with improved documentation (http://www.gcube-system.org)

World User Meeting Outcomes
8 initiatives expressed their interest to use D4Science technology: BarCodeof life initiative Biofresh 4D4life - Catalog of life IOC- OceanDataPortal IOC-OceanDocs - Ocean Experts CoML- OBIS CoML- OTN Stock assessment VRE
Positive feedback from user communities, D4Science technology and D4Science based VREs highly relevant for their work
Future meetings can emphasize much more on interaction and practical implementation

Training Activities
Work performed Training focus shifts to user communities Several events are performed targeting
• Community developers • Community administrators• Project developers
New material is produced• >90% is “private” material
Deviations Unforeseen needs are risen to
• Setup a standalone training infrastructure (ESA)• Adopt a new on-line training instrument for D4Science events (*)• Increase travel costs
Minor changes from originally planned events• ECDL Tutorial cancelation• Shifted external tutorials to dissemination events (OGF25, EGEE ‘09)
DNA4.1c deliverable slightly postponed to capture latest developments(*) http://videosrv.di.uoa.gr/openmeetings/

Elements for Success
.....and also in the further work with D4ScienceII
Define your audiences, concentrate on your audiences in appropriate ways! Address strongly user communities ! Demonstrate clearly your technological advantage! Outreach is not a work package, but an issue of the entire project consortium!
