Overview
NEMO is developed in a sustainable way: the releases are expected to be reliable and the code to be modular and readable, allowing projects to develop and add new pieces for their own needs. The NEMO shared modelling framework is developed by NEMO Consortium. The development is organised and scheduled through NEMO Consortium bodies:
- Yearly workplans describe ongoing developments are implemented by the System Team, comprised of consortium developers and external sponsored contributors. Their current status: activities by milestone
- Working groups gather community expertise for advising on specifc fields
- The NEMO development strategy
Contributions are welcome
You are welcome to contribute to NEMO shared platform development. Details on how to proceed. Once your proposed development is scheduled in the work plan, you will be guided and sponsored by one of the NEMO Officers for the duration of the development.
