A1 How did Cactus start?
Cactus originated in the Numerical Relativity community to realise
- the large scale computing needs and collaborative working practices
- required to model objects such as black holes, neutron stars and
- and gravitational waves using Einsteins Theory of General Relativity.

In particular, Cactus grew out of codes, experiences, and ideas of
- members of the NCSA and AEI numerical relativity groups together with
- a number of friends and collaborators. Since the first Beta release
- of Cactus 4.0 many suggestions and contributions have also been made
- by the users.

A2 Who develops and maintains Cactus?
- Cactus is primarily developed and maintained at the Max Planck Institute
- for Gravitational Physics (Albert Einstein Institute) in Potsdam, Germany.
- The funding for this support is mainly obtained through independent
- grants for projects in both computer science and physics which focus
- around Cactus.

A3 How can I get involved?
First, if you use Cactus, send bug reports, bug fixes, comments,
- suggestions, documentation to cactusmaint@cactuscode.org, or use
- the bug tracking/feature request system.
+ suggestions, documentation to <cactusmaint@cactuscode.org>, or use
+ the mailing list <users@cactuscode.org> and the bug
+ tracking/feature request system.
If you have written thorns which could be useful to other people,
make them available for others to use (if you have a web page,
send us the link to put on our page).
To find out about any existing or upcoming research programmer or
- student positions associated with Cactus development please contact
- Ed Seidel (eseidel@aei.mpg.de).
+ student positions associated with Cactus development please
+ contact Gabrielle Allen <gallen@cct.lsu.edu>.
