[Users] Inquiry about making a research thorn available for use in the Einstein Toolkit

Dear Einstein Toolkit team,
My name is Vinicius Ramos Rodrigues, and I am currently developing a
research module (thorn) intended for use with the Einstein Toolkit in the
context of numerical relativity research.
The module is being designed as a processual stress-energy sector
compatible with the Toolkit infrastructure, including coupling through
TmunuBase and evolution with MoL/BSSN-based setups. My goal is to make this
implementation available for research use and to ensure that it follows the
most appropriate technical and community standards for the Einstein Toolkit
ecosystem.
I would like to ask for your guidance on the best path for doing this. In
particular, I would appreciate advice on:
whether there is a recommended procedure for sharing a new research thorn
with the community,
whether there are preferred coding, documentation, or testing requirements
before such a thorn is made available,
and whether contribution through a public repository or another review
process would be the most suitable route.
If useful, I can also provide a short technical summary of the module, its
equations, intended use case, and current implementation status.
Thank you very much for your time and for maintaining such an important
resource for the numerical relativity community.
Best regards,
Vinicius Ramos Rodrigues
