This release includes, among other things, +more examples in the Einstein Toolkit Gallery. + +In addition, bug fixes accumulated since the previous release in May 2016 +have been included. + +The Einstein Toolkit is a collection of software components and tools for +simulating and analyzing general relativistic astrophysical systems that builds +on numerous software efforts in the numerical relativity community including +CactusEinstein, the Carpet AMR infrastructure and the relativistic +magneto-hydrodynamics code GRHydro. For parts of the toolkit, the Cactus +Framework is used as the underlying computational infrastructure providing +large-scale parallelization, general computational components, and a model for +collaborative, portable code development. The toolkit includes modules to build +complete codes for simulating black hole spacetimes as well as systems governed +by relativistic magneto-hydrodynamics. + +The Einstein Toolkit uses a distributed software model and its different +modules are developed, distributed, and supported either by the core team of +Einstein Toolkit Maintainers, or by individual groups. Where modules are +provided by external groups, the Einstein Toolkit Maintainers provide quality +control for modules for inclusion in the toolkit and help coordinate support. +The Einstein Toolkit Maintainers currently involve postdocs and faculty from +six different institutions, and host weekly meetings that are open for anyone +to join in. + +Guiding principles for the design and implementation of the toolkit include: +open, community-driven software development; well thought out and stable +interfaces; separation of physics software from computational science +infrastructure; provision of complete working production code; training and +education for a new generation of researchers. + +For more information about using or contributing to the Einstein Toolkit, or to +join the Einstein Toolkit Consortium, please visit our web pages at +http://einsteintoolkit.org. + +The Einstein Toolkit is primarily supported by NSF +1550551/1550461/1550436/1550514 (Einstein Toolkit Community Integration and +Data Exploration). + +The Einstein Toolkit contains about 200 regression test cases. On a large +portion of the tested machines, almost all of these test suites pass, using both +MPI and OpenMP parallelization. + +The changes between this and the previous release include: + +=== Upcoming changes for the next releases + +The Tmunu paramer support_old_CalcTmunu_mechanism, will be removed after this +release. If you rely on this, your code is probably unnecessarily slow.

Up to now, both versions are compiled, and +can be chosen at start-time. For a few releases the C++ versions are the +default. After this release, the Fortran versions will be removed.
