The second part of this document moves on to asses how successful that vision and implementation have been in addressing user --- and in particular \gls{ESFRI} --- needs.

In particular, \cref{sec:requirements} tabulates the documented requirements and compares them to delivered product, while \cref{sec:esfri} describes how some of the major \gls{ESCAPE} project \gls{ESFRI}s are engaging with and building upon the work carried out by \gls{WP}5.

As described in \cref{sec:vision}, the \gls{ESCAPE} project itself does not directly provide an instance of \gls{ESAP} that is targeted at end users.
Rather, \gls{ESAP} is distributed a toolkit that is provided for the use of \glspl{ESFRI} and other data and service providers who wish to provide a science platform to their user community.
We anticipate that these individual \gls{ESAP} instances will be managed and deployed as part of the \gls{EOSC}.
\subsection{The \glsentrytext{ESAP} codebase}
The \gls{ESAP} codebase is a core part of the \gls{ESCAPE} project output.
As such, before the conclusion of the project, it will be registered with the \gls{ESCAPE}\gls{OSSR} and thereby preserved for posterity within the context of the \gls{EOSC}.
The development code repositories for \gls{ESAP}, together with documentation and other resources, will continue to be hosted at ASTRON, the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy, for the foreseeable future.
