The initial [[ET Working Group Policies and Procedures]] document has been discussed and approved. New working groups should be proposed using the [[Working Group Template]].

This should include not only people from within the Einstein Toolkit. The ET web page already contains a (currently quite short) [http://einsteintoolkit.org/seminars/ list], and now it is time to propose upcoming talks. In order to record and story voiced proposals, please use the wiki page [[Einstein Toolkit Seminar Proposals]]. ==Release planning== * [[Release Details]] - Plan, status and checklist for the upcoming release * [[Release Process]] - Description of the process that we go through for each release ==Documentation== * Getting Started with the Einstein Toolkit ** [https://einsteintoolkit.org/download.html Obtaining the Einstein Toolkit] ** [https://github.com/einsteintoolkit/jupyter-et/blob/master/tutorial-server/notebooks/CactusTutorial.ipynb Compiling the Einstein Toolkit] ** [http://einsteintoolkit.org/documentation/new-user-tutorial Tutorial for New Users] [https://icerm.brown.edu/video_archive/?play=2356 Video Recording] ** [https://arxiv.org/pdf/1305.5299 An Introduction to the Einstein Toolkit] by [https://centra.tecnico.ulisboa.pt/team/?id=1838 Miguel Zilhão] and [http://fusion.cs.uni-jena.de/fusion/members/frank-loffler/ Frank Löffler] ** [https://arxiv.org/abs/2011.13314 The Einstein Toolkit: A Student's Guide] by Nicholas Choustikov * [[Additional resources]] * [[Thorns_we_know_of|Codes not (yet) in the Einstein Toolkit]] * [[Simulation Factory Advanced Tutorial]] ** [[Supported Machines]], [[Configuring a new machine]], [https://www.einsteintoolkit.org/seminars/2022_02_24/ EinsteinToolkit Seminar] incl.
