<li>TODO update: List of commits since the last release: [http://www.cct.lsu.edu/~knarf/ET_2012_11/log.xml Einstein Toolkit ChangeLog]</li>
<li>[[ChangeLog_ET_2013_05 | ChangeLog]] text</li>
<li>I would like to suggest that testing is performed on the latest version of common operating systems, for example Ubuntu, Fedora, Scientific Linux, Mac OS etc. People often want to build the ET on their laptop or workstation. We should provide somewhere instructions for which packages etc are needed. This information is probably already available in the minds of the current developers who use these systems already, and this should be written up more formally somewhere. This information could also be provided on the Cactus website. We could have simfactory configurations to go with this. (Ian)</li>
