Dear Partners, • My very best regards to all the LoCloud partners. It was a great pleasure
to work with the skilled and experienced partners of the LoCloud project. • I am looking forward to see the final results from the project. I also hope
that the good results from this project can be developed further in different ways and be an important component in the Europeana infrastructure. I find that the LoCLoud project in a very interesting way points out the direction for future infrastructure for cultural heritage institutions.
• Also, my very best regards to Marcel and to Kate. It was a great pleasure to work with them.
• I will also take this opportunity to thank Silvia, Joachim and Ole for their good work.
