Hi All! The Quantum ESPRESSO community is growing. We want it to be free, creative, altruistic. Free to develop new applications to enhance the functionalities of QE and to make it interoperable with other scientific software. Creative: new developments will allow to calculate properties and to simulate processes that have been so far unaccessible to computer modeling. Altruistic: we encourage all the users/developers to share their own developments with the entire community, and to submit their scientific software to the feedback of the community.
The QE-forge portal is a new service that the members of our community can utilize not only to download the latest releases of the QE distribution and related software, but also (and above all, I would say), to allow everyone to open their QE-related project, to maintain it using state-of-the art repository tools, and to share it with other users/developers. QE-forge provides, through a user-friendly web interface, an integrated development environment, whereby researchers can freely upload, manage and maintain their own software, while retaining a full control over it, including the right of not releasing it. The services so far available include source-code management software (CVS or SVN repository), mailing lists, public forums, bug tracking facilities, download space, and wiki pages for projects documentation. QE-forge is expected to become the main tool by which QUANTUM ESPRESSO end users and external contributors can maintain QE-related projects and make them available to the community.
