[okfn-coord] Fwd: INDECS proposal and checklist

Tue Jan 6 13:43:27 UTC 2009

Just to say - the OKF is joining an FP7 proposal, with a consortium of
other European institutions. Brief description from Severine
Dusollier:

<quote>Its objective would be to build an institutional system for the
intellectual commons. The project will be about IPR, commons, public
domain, and governance. I thought about you for the PD calculators and
more generally for your input on intellectual commons.</quote>

There's a 40 page draft proposal document attached.

I'm going to draft details of the OKF to go with the application later
today. Is anyone interested in being on it?

Rufus: is it alright if I include you? Or might you go on in your
capacity as an economist at Cambridge instead?

Jordan: is this of any interest to you?

J.

dear Jonathan

You will find attached the current status of our proposal for the
project INDECS.
We will need from you the following input:
1.  read carefully the proposal:
- any comments (positive (yes) or negative) will be welcome
2. description of your entity, comprising
- a brief description of the legal entity
- previous experience relevant to the project (indicate what projects
or expertise your organisation has in IP, commons, public domain or
institutional matters)
- short profile of staff members who will be undertaking the work
maximum 0,75 page (as we will have to complete it with your main
tasks, the whole being limited to 1 page)
3. the PIC number of your legal organisation : the PIC number is the
Partner Identification Code used by the EC. If you were already
involved in one EC-funded project (under the FP7 I think), you have
one PIC
If you have no PIC or cannot find it, please give us :
- the status of your organisation (non-profit organisation, public
body, research organisation, or higher education establishment)
- method of determining indirect costs ( either actual indirect cost,
actual indirect cost calculated using a simplified method, a standard
flat rate of 20%, transitional flat-rate (p.t. 60%), lump sum (only
for icpc)
For your information, the higher education establishment can benefit
from a 60% flat rate (but verify that in your administrative
department).
4. fill in the form A2 on the EPSS website:  https://www.epss-fp7.org
(go on the A forms part and fill in yours)
Partner username      : 7E9J2MJNDC
Partner password      : 4321indecs
5. To be able to design the budget, could you provide us with the cost
of one man-month applicable to the type of person who will work for
the project

If you have any questions, contact Maria or me by email, or by phone
at +32 81 725814. (my mobile is +32 497 081449)
The time is very short as we need to complete everything by next
Monday and there is still a lot of work to do. SO please provide us
with the last inputs by Wednesday at the latest.
Thanks a lot
Séverine and Maria
