to 34 in 1st year

Findings from the workshop andpilot phase governance

Current Governance and NDA are effective for a “limited” number of members but must be suitable for a large group of membersGovernance needs to be compatible with the legal nature of all potential partners and include different types of membershipsGovernance in the future should not aim to cover all aspects of all relationships in the consortium; e.g. bilateral NDAs and agreements between two or few partners should be possibleSharing of information should be OPEN as much as possible, with confidentiality only in limited casesProtection of IP needs to be managed, e.g. by introducing a “layered” confidentiality approach: one that addresses base principles, with another for specific issues for flagshipsCommunication on HN and the usage of the brand Helix Nebula has to be managedGovernance has to ensure that anti-trust rules are respected

Overall modifications, corrective actions, re-tuning of objectives

As additional step provide mature draft of the Report on Governance for integration of Commercial Cloud services with e-Infrastructures (D8.1) for discussion at GA3 (in September, 2013).This will allow an in-depth discussion of the governance model and provide sufficient time for final adjustments before official submission of D8.1.

Exploitation and use of foreground

Draft Governance Model will be aligned with the definitions of the Business Models (WP7)Alignment with development, integration and provisioning of cloud services platforms and brokering roles (WP4)
