  • The current consortium in Task 2 is constituted until now mostly of Annex 60 participants.
  • Further experts which might contribute to Task 2 should be invited to join
• Wrap-up by Christoph

Next Steps

• Activity/WP leaders should revise the contents of their work package in order to integrate points discussed in this meeting
• Web-meeting of WP leaders in mid-January for fixing further issues with the working plan
• Preparation of break-out sessions during the Berlin meeting.
