Einstein Toolkit Seminars

It would be nice to organize a semi-regular series of talks with topics of general interest. This should include not only people from within the Einstein Toolkit. The ET web page already contains a (currently quite short) 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.
