A core driver for this repository is to facilitate data retention and sharing. Datasets produced by the Einstein Toolkit will be archived in an open repository where they can be connected to publications via a DOI, and searched for via metadata. We would welcome hearing your thoughts on how to share and sustain the datasets produced by the ET.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px"> </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px">You are invited to participate in this research project because you are the user of the Einstein Toolkit and associated data.
