Kenneth, thanks for supporting my idea. It has been very helpful to see how you use EB at UGent and I am curious to know more about other centers. When we will reach production I will certainly contribute to the section.

One of the (very good) things about EB is that it is very flexible and each center can adopt a different strategy to build software via EB. This is pretty evident in this mailing list. It would then be very helpful for new centers that are planning to deploy software with EB to have a section of the documentation that collects configuration and use cases from multiple centers that already adopt EB in production. This is an excellent idea! I have been wanting to add a list of sites that are using EasyBuild to the documentation, but I never got around to it... Your proposal takes that one step further, and I think you're right, this would be very valuable for other sites, both newcomers and people already using EasyBuild for a while. I spent some time on putting this together, and fleshed out a page for HPC-UGent already which can be used as example. See https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild/pull/264. Please take a look, and let me know what you think. If anyone want to add a page for their site as well, please send me it to me one way or another (a pull request, via mail, etc.). regards, Kenneth Have a great weekend! -- Davide Vanzo, PhD Application Developer Advanced Computing Center for Research and Education (ACCRE) Vanderbilt University - Hill Center 201 (615)-875-9137 www.accre.vanderbilt.edu<http://www.accre.vanderbilt.edu>
