[Go-essp-tech] CMIP5 Web interface requirements matrix

[Cinquini, Luca (3880)]

Hi Stephen,
	thanks for the matrix...
I would like to suggest that we start with a full demo of the P2P system on Tuesday. The gateway 2.0 demo took a full hour - we will try to make the P2P demo shorter, but if it ends up taking a full hour, we can always discuss the matrix at the next call.
thanks, Luca
