Something I would like to quickly discuss is a small issue that I believe is still open concerning the repository rearrangement.

The current list can be found here:

https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-docs/Repository_transition

The issue is that it is not clear (at least to me, and not in that list) what to do with thorns that have 'attachment/test' thorns, like

GRHydro / GRHydro_Init_Data MoL / TestMoL

From a developers point it would be nice to have them in the same repository - which would, in the current state of things mean in the same arrangement. However, logically they don't belong there (e.g. GRHydro_Init_Data does not belong in EinsteinEvolve).

Possible solutions would be (not sorted in any way, especially not my preference): - put things that technically belong together in one repository and use the symlink-hack to point from different arrangements to the same repository in repos. - put test thorns (GRHydro_Init_Data/TestMoL) into test repositories (CactusTest / EinsteinTest). - create arrangements for such units, and put all thorns in that. This would mean, e.g., arrangements/GRHydro/GRHydro and arrangements/GRHydro/GRHydro_Init_Data

Essentially it boils down to three questions: - Which arrangements should these thorns be in? - Which repositories should these thorns be in? - Should the first two be the same (then the repo could be directly checked out into arrangements/).
