1 – In April 2024, RAMSES moved from bitbucket to GitHub. We explain why this happened and tell you how to migrate your own fork of the code here: https://ramses.cnrs.fr/ramses-moves-to-github/.
2 – We have set up a new RAMSES forum on GitHub. We encourage the community to use it instead of Slack to discuss code issues. Find out why and how to at this link: https://ramses.cnrs.fr/a-new-ramses-forum/.
3 – Following the RAMSES school for new users, a first batch of tutorials is available online. These take the user from the setup of initial conditions to the analysis of the simulation outputs, and cover a range of research topics. Have a look here: https://ramses-tutorials.readthedocs.io/ or contribute there: https://github.com/ramses-organisation/ramses-tutorials.
4 – We have written out a git development model that will help us maintain a robust stable branch of the code while allowing developments on the dev branch. This document is a first brick to the documentation for developers, accessible here: https://ramses-organisation.readthedocs.io/en/dev/dev_docs/developer_guide.html.
5 – We have set up a database of submission scripts. Find more information about this here: https://github.com/ramses-organisation/ramses-job-scripts.
6 – The RAMSES User Meeting 2025 will be hosted in Strasbourg, from May 12 to 16. Find more information here: https://rum2025.sciencesconf.org/.
7 – We held the annual SNO meeting in Paris (IAP) on Nov. 13 & 14. A few SNO presentations are available here: https://ramses.cnrs.fr/sno-annual-meeting-2024/.
8 – To early-career researchers seeking a permanent position in France, the CNAP competition will open shortly (deadline end of January). Contact Jeremy Blaizot if you wish to apply with duties related to the SNO RAMSES. More information here : https://cnap.obspm.fr/CNAP-Recrutement/concours.html.
