Maintenance of Australian registered lightie in Europe

Looking for people who've been there done that for some advice:

Will be ferrying my Archer to Europe (Germany initially, but moving around a fair bit for work) in Jan, and had initial conversations with CASA advising me there is most likely a possibility (based on instrument 127/95) to self-issue a maintenance release and have a licensed engineer of any Chicago convention country signatory do and sign off maintenance abroad.

Have already ordered a stack of Maintenance Release forms, and need to know what else I need to do. Someone was talking about a formal Maintenance Authority I might need, any other stumbling blocks/experiences/advice?

Will obviously talk to CASA further, just wanted to tap the fountain of real world knowledge here to see what issues I might face on the ground, and what I could possibly do here before I leave to mitigate them..

Cheers!
