Right, although it might be a short call if a lot are missing due to a holiday in the US.

Here are some things worth noticing:

- GRHydro received a lot of updates... - GRHydro now uses CarpetEvolutionMask if active. - TmunuBase::support_old_CalcTmunu_mechanism is now by default set to "no". - Thorns that define an OPTIONAL dependency on a capability now automatically activate that thorn at runtime, even if not mentioned explicitly in the parameter file. If this is not desired, use the (new) OPTIONAL_IFACTIVE - Thorn Vectors received a major upgrade. - Ticket 1229 contains a discussion about providing an ET tarball and technical details how to do that. There isn't a consensus yet, but I think that a non-RCS tarball containing the release tag (don't confuse with release branch name) in the name might be what will be implemented. gzip and xz have been mentioned as possible compression algorithms with the advantage of gzip being it's vast availability while xz compresses much better.
