19. Mid-life considerations on SPOCS: pros Technology is going somewhere • eDocuments, signature creation and cross border validation • Cross-border eDelivery • Syndication / Service Catalogues European Commission helps • CommissionDecision 2009/767/EC + 2010/425/EU • EUGO network European standards are useful (ETSI): • Advanced signature • TSL • REM • SPOCS is pushing standards

20. Mid-life considerations on SPOCS: cons Legal basis are still somehow weak: • eDocument are often specific • Cross-border eDelivery may prove hard to be accepted • Political support for interoperability is weak… Real case piloting may prove hard: • two professions/two countries: are there such cases in piloting env? Partner commitment and collaboration… • Huge number of (new) partners • Strict timing for establishing a common dictionary
