= Welcome to the LUDUS framework =

The LUDUS framework started as ''LOVECLIM User's Development, Unofficial Software'' as a mean to provide a plateform for users of LOVECLIM developping it further. 

LUDUS has evolved over time to be a framework where exchange, improvements and bugfixes are shared for the iLOVECLIM official version. It thus provides a ground for training with the iLOVECLIM model before going to the wider Science Arena. As such it is not unlike the [http://www.unicaen.fr/cireve/rome/pdr_maquette.php?fichier=visite_ludus_magnus Ludus Magnus] of the ancient Rome that provided training for the gladiators before the Arena. 

= Where to start? =

If you are a member of the LUDUS plateform, the first action to consider is to login (link on the upper right) so as to obtain the full details on everything available on this page. Then, you probably want to checkout the "Timeline" section, to see what are the latest developments within iLOVECLIM. [[BR]]
