Hey Carsten,


I add more details about NGI 0 funding  in pm not to spam the list that
the NGI0 funding needs to be taken by a european (individual or group)
we cannot do it because it would be a conflict of interest + we do have
the skills, maybe you can do it and delegate someone in Brazil for the work?
