As they say, only 20 over 74 open cloud projects in the OCD received an OCEAN Open Cloud label:
-  7 Open Cloud projects obtained the Quality Checked by OCEAN label 2014.
- 13 Open Cloud projects obtained the Reviewed by OCEAN label 2014.
 
The CloudSpaces project is been developed by a consortium integrated by 3 Universities: “Rovira i Virgili”, Eurecom (France), and Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (Switzerland), and 3 Companies: EyeOs, NEC and, of course, TISSAT.
 
Besides, it should be remembered that CloudSpaces is the project where it’s been developed StackSync (a personal cloud software) that recently wined 3 “Software Libre 2014” open software awards (see my last post in 2014-nov-07).
 
Please let me partially quote its e-mail with more data about the OCEAN’s Open Cloud Quality label.
