[Users] Meeting Minutes for 2025-05-22

[Leo Rosa Werneck]

Hi all,

Here are the minutes from last week’s meeting.

Cheers,
Leo

Present: Zach (Chair), Leo (Minutes), Maxwell, Peter, Deborah, Keith, Lucas,
         Roland, Steve, Johnny

*ET Release*
  - Branches for the new release are being created.
  - FLRWSolver: Unit tests are not passing, and it seems like it is not simply
                a matter of adjusting the tolerances, but the fact it uses a
                Fortran random generator function that produces different data
                depending on the system/compiler. While a quick fix is being
                provided, a long-term solution is to call one of C++ STL's
                well-specified random number generators.
  - Deborah worked on a new way to produce files with different extensions for
    the test suite. Roland and Steve will review.
  - Gallery examples:
    * BBH: completed.
    * TOV: completed.
    * Axi-Dilaton: completed.
    * BNS: pending, will be done today.
    * Multi-Patch Wave Equation: Lucas is dealing with compilation issues.
  - BHaHAHA: while its inclusion was postponed to next release, Zach announced
             the paper will be out in the arxiv today.

*Upcoming NA ET Summer School (Austin, TX)*
  - Website: https://indico.global/event/14071/
  - Funding is mostly sorted out, participants should be notified soon.
  - Steve suggests reaching out to universities for future meetings that would
    willing to host us and donate rooms for the meeting to happen. They could
    be chosen strategically to minimize traveling hassles.

*Open Tickets & ready for review*
  - #2855: In principle NoiseX works, but Lucas is busy with workshop.
  - #2862: Ready to review, simple parfile change.
  - #2860: Peter tested it and found instabilities.
  - #2846: Steve will review.
