Hello, 

I am writing to you today because you have a code registered in the Astrophysics Source Code Library (ASCL) that is hosted on Google Code. Google has announced that it is closing its Google Code service (here). Google suggests several courses of action and states, "We ... offer stand-alone tools for migrating to GitHub and Bitbucket, and SourceForge offers a Google Code project importer service.”

Please take steps to save your code! If you migrate your software to another site, I would appreciate knowing the new URL. If you are no longer working on your code and do not want to migrate it to another project hosting site, please allow the ASCL to store an archive file (tarball/zip/etc.) of it with the ASCL entry so it remains available to support the written research record. If you would like to have the ASCL host an archive file, please let me know. Thank you. 

Thank you for your attention. 

Best regards, 

Alice 
Editor, ASCL

Dear Editor,

Thanks for the notice. We already moved our project (ester-project) to GitHub.
The new URL is http://ester-project.github.io/ester/
Let me know if you need anything else.

Regards,

Michel Rieutord
