Dear All
Marcelo and I had a meeting with Angel, our PO, this afternoon and checked with him your
queries on deliverables:
1. It is OK to shift D1.2 Initial Data Management Plan from M6 to M8.
1. When does a deliverable become public?:
* A deliverable will only become publicly available on EU websites when formally
approved by the PO.
* Some POs formally approve the deliverables themselves, others prefer to leave the
formal approval until the reviewers at the periodic reporting stage have reviewed them
too.
* Any EU partner can log in and check on the portal to see the status of their
deliverable, including whether it has been approved:
<Log in>Click on <ExtenD.T.2 Project: Actions><Manage
Projects><Continuous Reporting><Deliverables>
* There are no fixed rules on when we ourselves can disseminate/publish our public
deliverables e.g., on our extendt2 website after they have been submitted.
* Angel does not see an issue if we decide ourselves whenever to do this.
* However, Angel asked that we inform him, if we would like any deliverables to be
formally approved by him on the portal, to alleviate any doubt.
* He will usually, unless he is absent, review (and approve (or not)) our
deliverables usually within a day or two of request.
1. What is the procedure if a deliverable is submitted/uploaded on time and then we
wish to replace it in the next week or two with a higher quality version or a small
adjustment to a table etc.
* Angle was not sure. We MAY be able to resubmit IF he has not approved or rejected
the deliverable.
* However, he prefers that he be contacted, as he does see an issue of us replacing a
deliverable in such circumstances. He can reject the deliverable from his side then and
allow us to resubmit/upload a new version without issue.
Best regards to you all for the w/e!
