The whole suggestion here is based on what STF and SPI said. There was a conference between SPI and STF where they worked the details out. Also all the things SPI told us had STF in CC. I think you should try to bring the work you want funded into the framework that they told us to use.

Theres a very big difference. we have around 100k USD in SPI STF has a lower limit of 150.000 € so we actually need to ask them for at least 150k to be qualified IIUC And honestly if you reject that, i just dont understand you. "Estimated costs: The cost of the work described in the application must exceed €150,000 (current minimum)." AT no point could we have done anything with SPI money in a similar magnitude. In fact trying to use SPI money for any work failed because of it not being enough. thx [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB If you fake or manipulate statistics in a paper in physics you will never get a job again.
