2002: EAA and EFTTA delivered a so called Expression of interest (EoI) to the EU as the European Commission had asked for such EOI's to guide the pay outs from the 6th (research) Framework Program, which ran from 2002-2006.

2007: We are still struggling to find the funding for the RECFISH project. The RECFISH project didn't fit very well the 6th Framework Program. We might try 7th (research) Framework Program.
