Present: Roland, Steve, Peter, Yosef, Sam, Johnny, Leo, Zach

ET release:

* deadline to include thorns in thornlist was yesterday, none have been added ** Sam asks for a reviewer to look at GRHayl thornlist, Steve will look at pull request ** CarpetX still has issues, Roland will fix LoopControl problem ** no updates from SGRID

Tickets: * merging SeedMagneticField in https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/tickets/issues/2746/make-seed_magnetic... Sam has made some changes to push things forward

* https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/tickets/issues/2745 Zach and Sam on fence on whether to push for GRHayL in this release or the next to replace IllinoisGRMHD

* https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/tickets/issues/2756 Roland described issue being caused by E and P cores on Intel cpus and unexpected number of logical CPUs reported by the OS. Steve asked if there is an easy way to to identify them. Roland is not aware. Yosef asks if it is possible to limit to only one sort of cores. The ET currently tries to avoid HT but the issue here is really the uneven number of logical cpus compared to cores. Currenlty lscpu --extended can be used to identify the cores based on their maximum frequency, but it is not nice.

* https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/tickets/issues/2752/parameter-file-par... causes issues since we copy the string context verbatim to C, then LaTeX then HTML code. Had a discussion about allowing everything and escaping, or listing forbidden characters, or listing allowed characters. Discussion favored escaping for C, LaTeX and HTML output.

Email:

* https://lists.einsteintoolkit.org/pipermail/users/2023-September/009059.html "Loss of precision after postintial?". Yosef suggested that init_3_tl could also cause changes in POSTPOSTINITIAL. Peter is not sure if anything more can be said without having seen the parameter file. Peter will try and contact Hayley.
