AOB:

Licinio Kustra Mano: How to provide an easier way to install the NCP?

1) Should we have a Virtual Machine with the NCP prepared, that new people install NCP more easily?

2) Alexandre Santos has been preparing a new solution (based on Docker): easier install process?

    • Deployed an OpenNCP (except the Portal) with Docker... all components have been separated in containers.
    • It is working and can be demonstrated.
    • Thomas Fleischmann: recognises the possible value on docker, but recommend that firstly we should have a VM and than we can think on a more sophisticated deployment mechanism.
    • Licinio Kustra Mano: After the revision of the manual: maybe we should move to a solution like this.
    • Marcello Melgara: reminded that the effort of creating a more automated mechanism for deploying, should also take in consideration who are the beneficiaries that can gain with it? 
      • how many other MS can beficiate from this?
      • How much effort is needed and shouldn't we place that effort in other priorities?

Licinio Kustra Mano will invite: Steen Manniche and Konstantin Hyppönen to give a loon on the review proposal.
