CPR feedback included wish How to identify your target group for cloud services (e.g. researchers), how to establish communication channels to them, how to reach the end user, how to deal with "gatekeepers" and so on, and best practices on that topic would be interesting as we are struggling here.

	ACOnet celebrated 25 years of Internet in Austria in June with a great event and my last project at ACOnet is a complete redesign of our homepage. It should be finished by end of October. These topics are connected in a way but I don’t know if they are interesting and fit in the agenda. Christine could give a short overview via VC.
