Community launches OpenCourant fork after OpenRadioss shutdown

Original: # OpenCourant : # RockyLinux Developers Create Community Fork Of # OpenRadioss Big surprise and unfortunate decision of

Developers associated with the Rocky Linux community have created OpenCourant, a community fork of the open-source crash simulation code OpenRadioss. The move comes in response to Siemens shutting down the four-year-old project, which was originally started by Altair Engineering and built around its Radioss solver. Commenters describe the shutdown as surprising and an unfortunate loss for the open engineering community.

Why now: Siemens' decision to discontinue a widely used open-source simulation project prompted the community to keep it alive through a fork.
