<h2>Thorns moving</h2> -<p>A lot of components moved from one place to another in the recent past. The following table gives an overview of the moved components. Please note that only components are mentioned here which either moved to the Einstein Toolkit or into Cactus. Many other Cactus repositories moved from CVS to Subversion as well, but stayed within Cactus itself. Those are not mentioned here.</p>
