https://www.spec.org/cpu2017/Docs/benchmarks/507.cactuBSSN_r.html


  *   Next ET release manager search:

Roland sent email to people asking: “are you willing to be the release 
manager?”.

Yosef suggested that there should be a release team with a coordinator more 
than a release manager in charge of everything.
Being the release manager shouldn’t be too difficult because Zach in the last 
release created detailed notes about the process, also he pointed out some 
stuff in release list that only Steve or Roland can do like updating ZENODO 
site.
 It was decided to wait for one more week if not  Steve volunteered  to do it 
if Roland does the next one.


  *   New components in the release:

Kuibit:
 Yosef is going to review it, he will try to start soon by installing it, 
Gabriele said version 1.3 master branch should be most possible candidate for 
the release. Kuibit documentation should be followed in order to install it or 
follow the gallery example
