Follow up
- We invited Miguel Arratia (UCR) to mirror the Delphes detector cards, validation code, etc. on https://github.com/eic and he will do so.
- We have encouraged the DWG+PWG to use https://github.com/eic and they will be supportive.
- Improve communication

Cross-tool validation
The "2nd EIC Yellow Report Workshop” has shown that the EIC Software tools we support are accepted and used by the Detector and Physics Working Groups:
- For the indefinite future we will have two full simulation and reconstruction frameworks, ESCalate and fun4all. In addition to that, we still have EicRoot as Alexander’s framework is still being used by various groups.
- On the fast simulation side, we support one tool, eic-smear, though some in the community are using Delphes.
With the questions we have received for the Software Q&A and the discussions during the workshop, it has become clear that we need cross-validation between these tools:
- We need to cross-validate ESCalate, fun4all, and EicRoot,
- the fast simulation with the full simulation,
- and maybe even eic-smear with Delphes.
The Software Working Group would benefit from additional resources for this task. Do you know anyone who could help?
