Dear Nikos,

I am subscribed to the mailing list but I am unsure that this message will get 
through to the list as I am a member of fsf but not fsfe.

Thank you very much for the link! I have worked in FP7 projects and EU projects 
before and this is a good introduction for me as I always took part as a low 
level scientist. And I now want to be more involved.

One of the projects I colaborated with is http://gwyddion.net/ they are a group 
of mainly two from CMI. But they are involved in a lot of diffferent projects 
which improves gwyddion in many ways. On the proposals and deliverables they 
clearly state that all software will be GPL. I think, as you propose, it is a 
good idea to get fsfe involved. But as the talk says, you need someone 
experienced on H2020 accounting and burocracy. So maybe have fsfe and another 
experienced partner or maybe have them use the funding to hire an experienced 
project manager/accountant.

Good luck!
Regards,
Andrés Muñiz-Piniella
