[GoTM] Osmose Transaction Framework

[Romain Rouvoy <Romain.Rouvoy@xxxxxxx>]

-- Dear Osmose partners,

This email is especially targeted to the Osmose partners
that manifested their interest in the WP2 transaction framework
while preparing the Osmose FPP and others that want to
join.

The first tasks in this working group should be the following
ones:
- Establish the cluster of partners, and for each partner,
  the nature of the contribution and the efforts (man*year)
       Requested to be presented at the next WP2 Osmose meeting
- Domain analysis of the working group
  (since the term "transaction" has numerous different meanings)
       If possible, to be presented at the next OW meeting
- Work plan of the working group
       Requested to be presented at the next OW meeting
- Requirements elicitation for the transaction framework (draft version)
       Due the end of November for completion
       (see action points in Osmose's twiki for the date)

    (please prefix your email subject with the [GoTM] tag)
  - Tell us in a few words via the mailing list what you intend
    to provide for the transaction framework
    This will constitute the entries for the workplan of
