The document discusses policies and developments related to e-infrastructures in Eastern Europe. It outlines the EU's vision for empowering research communities through access to services for data, computation, communication, and collaboration. It provides updates on the EU's policy framework, including the Horizon 2020 program and Connecting Europe Facility. It also discusses recommendations from the GÉANT Experts Group on the future of research networking in Europe and the concept of a "GÉANT 2020" communications commons to enable collaboration and access to resources for knowledge creation. Challenges related to cloud computing interoperability, privacy, governance, security, and dependability are also noted.
