Ingrid Dillo, Deputy Director DANS and Project Coordinator FAIRsFAIR: “FAIRsFAIR is one of the Horizon 2020 projects for the implementation of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). This project review report covers the first eighteen months, and is a big thumbs up for all partners involved. The outputs of our project are of direct relevance to European research policy and practice. The report underlines this, and states that the ‘project should be commended in particular for its efficient, harmonious and responsive project management, the internal collaboration across work packages and tasks, and the substantial and successful efforts to bring external initiatives into dialogue across the European research data landscape. The progress of all activities – objectives, deliverables, milestones, dissemination, communication and use of resources – are on target, and are high quality.’ With this feedback, we step with strengthened confidence into the remaining project period, in which of course the given recommendations will also be included.”
