Making speeches talk

excerpt from: Setting up the European Cloud Partnership

[...] Since then, consultations with Cloud providers, users and consumers have been extensive. Much work has also been done by interested parties in Europe and with major trading partners to identify the main issues that need to be addressed.

Is it not possible to publically announce with what providers and stakeholders discussions have been made?

Carl thanks for those PDFs, they will help us as we work 'open the cloud' so to speak.. all feedback is important! Usually comes back to the same issues! SLA, issues in heavily regulated industries, security and legal. In general mass adoption is some ways off, we even have some companies jumping into the cloud that wind up burned because they're operations might not even need the virtualization.
