Relationships with other WPs Dissemination and training requires by definition interactions with all WPs, and Will first be tested on the ETICS team Since we will Eat our own dog food, the web application will be used by all WPs Web interface is client of the web service build-system (WP3) and the testing (WP4) Community portal provides a forum for ETICS partners and users ETICS Kick-off - WP5 - 20 January 2006 - CERN

Relationships with external projects EU-OMII Will be member of the ETICS board of experts Collaboration are being put in place such that the EU-OMII middleware is build and tested using the ETICS Service BELIEF Will work together on joint Quality Assurance events GGF We plan to participate in definition of standards and automated tools, which still has to be clarified ICEAGE Collaborate and participate in training events Other NESSI, C-OMEGA, etc ETICS Kick-off - WP5 - 20 January 2006 - CERN

Risk assessment Definition of the ETICS Quality Certification Process is not clearly defined Mitigation: involve the Board of Experts, to guide the scope to the certification The composition of the Board of Experts has to be representative of future stake-holders of the ETICS certification process Mitigation: confirm the participation of current members and exploit leads given by ETICS partners ETICS Kick-off - WP5 - 20 January 2006 - CERN
