Questions sent to me necessitate the following explanations:<br>
<br>
<ul>
<li>the first list of projects in my yesterday email are those
whose coordinators have sent an email similar to the following
(see also the text in the oldest news in the bottom of the <a
href="http://www.aalforum.eu/group/leccedeclaration">declaration
page</a>):<br>
<blockquote><span style="" lang="EN-US"><b>To</b>: <a
class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated"

<span style="" lang="EN-US"><b>Subject</b>: We support the
Lecce Declaration</span><br>
<br>
<span style="" lang="EN-US">On behalf of the <PROJECT NAME
& home-page> consortium, we would like to express our
support to the Lecce Declaration.</span><span style=""
lang="EN-US"><br>
</span></blockquote>
These emails are being sent to us in reply to an email that we
(the Declaration Organizing Committee) have sent to the
coordinators of currently running projects related to AAL (AAL
JP, FP7, CIP, ITEA, national, ...). We thought that only in case
of running projects, it is possible to speak on behalf of the
corresponding consortia.</li>
<li>The second list was taken from <a
class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://aaloa.org/team/becoming_a_supporter">http://aaloa.org/team/becoming_a_supporter</a>
which consists of projects that have explicitly requested to be
mentioned as AALOA supporters. This does not automatically mean
that they also support the Lecce Declaration (LD). In my email,
I wanted to motivate them to send the email supporting the LD.
However, the mistake in my email was that 5 of those 8 projects
are already finished and hence it is not any more possible for
them to send such an email. Additionally, as finished projects,
the corresponding coordinators are not on the contact lists that
we have received from AAL JP, eInclusion, ... => they didn't
even know of it!</li>
<li>We cannot take any of the individuals / organizations /
projects supporting AALOA automatically on the list of the LD
supporters; only those who send an email similar to the above or
join the LD group here
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://www.aalforum.eu/group/leccedeclaration"><http://www.aalforum.eu/group/leccedeclaration></a> can be
mentioned as the signatories of the LD. The details of how to
handle this, is not discussed yet. My personal idea is to
include the names of organizations and projects in the LD itself
but for individuals create a special page under the LD group
home for listing the names and in the LD itself only add
something like "the n individuals listed at
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.aalforum.eu/group/leccedeclaration/page/supporters">http://www.aalforum.eu/group/leccedeclaration/page/supporters</a>".
If all such supporters join the group on <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.aalforum.eu">www.aalforum.eu</a>, then
we can avoid creating a page and simply say something like "the
n members of the forum group
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.aalforum.eu/group/leccedeclaration">http://www.aalforum.eu/group/leccedeclaration</a>".</li>
</ul>

announced their support for the Lecce declaration within the last
24 hours:
<br>
<br>
- CASALA and CASALA Living Lab
<br>
- APSIS4all
<br>
- the European Thematic Network ATIS4all
<br>
- HOMEdotOLD
<br>
- VITAL

- SeniorEngag

<br>
Projects supporting AALOA (BRAID, MonAmI, OASIS, OSAmI, PERSONA,
SOPRANO, universAAL & WASP) have not sent any message to the
Declaration Organizing Committee, yet! I'm sure, many of the
individuals supporting AALOA are also involved in AAL projects, in
case of my own colleagues, I know of CCE, V2me, optimAAL, RAALI,
...
<br>
<br>
P.S.: at the bottom of this page
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://www.aalforum.eu/group/leccedeclaration"><http://www.aalforum.eu/group/leccedeclaration></a> you will
find news about the Lecce Declaration, for example the text of the
standard message being sent to the projects and asking for their
support!
