Hello all.
With the lack of users on the ETK IRC channel, I propose that we move to gitter. Unlike IRC, gitter does not require that users be logged in constantly, and it has been used to great success within the SymPy community: https://gitter.im/sympy/sympy . By default, you receive email notifications if someone poses a question directed at you, and notification settings can be adjusted to be noisier or less noisy as desired. Here's the gitter Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gitter.
I just set up an Einstein Toolkit gitter chat page:
*https://gitter.im/Einstein-Toolkit/Einstein-Toolkit https://gitter.im/Einstein-Toolkit/Einstein-Toolkit*
as well as a Performance Optimization Working Group chat page:
https://gitter.im/Einstein-Toolkit/WG-Performance-Optimization
Additional channels for working groups within the Toolkit can be set up under the Einstein-Toolkit/ subdirectory. Also, channel administration privileges can be added/modified as needed.
You can log in to gitter using github or twitter. *Though gitter uses github credentials, it can also interface with bitbucket repos.* Gitter can also be accessed via desktop and mobile apps.
Messages in gitter rooms are public, searchable, and stored to the cloud indefinitely. Also, private one-on-one chats are possible within gitter.

Present: Roland, Peter, Bhavesh, Zach, Qian,
US ET meeting in ATL:
- website: http://et-workshop18.physics.gatech.edu/
- June 18 – June 20, 2018
- registration page: http://et-workshop18.physics.gatech.edu/register/
(not yet functional)
- will send announcements to hyperspace, facebook, Helvi Vitek, Einstein
Toolkit website (give access to website page to Bhavesh)
wiki site:
- postpone until next week
new user registration link:
- we think Frank set this up, so will have to contact him about what could be going wrong. TODO: Peter to contact Frank
missing material on ET website:
- http://einsteintoolkit.org/mp.html is missing ID files and most links are broken
- ID files no longer present on server at Caltech
- Patrick Cheong tried to reproduce the run with current RNSID in ET but failed. Possibly bug in parfile or bug in GRHydro or difference between Whisky_RNSID and RNSID in ET right now. TODO: Roland to ping authors of paper, try to reproduce files with Whisky_RNSID
- material is hard to find. Suggest to add them to the gallery.
Gallery:
- suggest to ask authors of ET using papers for submissions to the gallery
ET chat:
- there is a ET slack which we tried but which seems to have not gotten anywhere
- similar story for IRC:
https://webchat.oftc.net/?channels=cactus&uio=OT10cnVlde
- Zach suggests giving https://gitter.im a try which is eg used by sympy: https://gitter.im/sympy/sympy
ET meeting next week: Only if there is interest since it overlaps with the APS meeting.
Yours, Roland
