As you probably saw on the Cactus Users' mailing list, we are moving certain thorns between repositories today, and we are switching the Cactus repositories from cvs to svn. While the thorns themselves (with a few exceptions) should not change at all, this change will require testing, and you can help us:
- Wait for Frank's email that things are ready for testing - Frank will describe the new repository structure
- Test checking out and building from new thorn locations - both anonymous and read/write access - test this for many architectures (both workstations and the big LONI/TeraGrid systems) - Look over CactusCode and EinsteinToolkit web sites - update download instructions and all thorn lists - use GetComponents instead of GetCactus - look at Utilities as well
- Run test suites, compare output before and after - Begin running a few production simulations as well
If you are helping, please keep in touch via frequent emails to the public mailing lists.
