Actually it is getting hot in our offices. Not due to some climate issues, but because the whole VICINITY team has LOTS to do.
We are now short of time before submission of the final reports. Nevertheless we have some time to report the latest news in this newsletter.

Dear VICINITY partners & friends,

After the summer holidays we are approaching the final phase of the VICINITY project.

The SPRINGER book on VICINITY is also growing although a lot more work is needed to complete it. The use cases are being evaluated and are being complemented with several adaptors beyond those from the Open Call winners.
