conflicts. ^

@katyhuff it conflicts becuase of write_input.py, which is removed by #84 . Once #84 is merged it should not conflict anymore.

This PR is way too big for me to review in a timely manner.

Can you perhaps request a review from a colleague and then walk that colleague through the PR to facilitate the review? That is, perhaps @gwenchee @gtw2 or @robfairh would be willing to sit with you and look over this, and perhaps they would be helped by you walking through the highlights of the PR?

[gwenchee]

I could look over this with you tomorrow @jbae11

[gwenchee]

Perhaps, since get_input_file.ipynb generates the xml input files, you don't need to include the xml input files in the PR? And just have clear instructions in the notebooks about how to generate the input files?

[jbae11]

The input files that are generated from the jupyter notebook requires some modifications (in XInclude), so it's probably best to include the xml files

[gwenchee]

Is there no way to modify them within the jupyter notebook? @jbae11

[jbae11]

I think that'd be very complex.

[katyhuff]

I entirely agree with gwen on this one. From a reproducibility standpoint, you either need to fully document the creation process for the xml files, or automate their creation.

[katyhuff]

Status of this?

[katyhuff]

@jbae11 ping.

[katyhuff]

@jbae11 What is the status of this?

[katyhuff]

@jbae11 I just wanted to ping you to see if you have any interest in handilng these conflicts to allow this to be merged. I just bring this up because we're near merging another PR (from @abachma2 ) that will cause significantly more conflicts in the future.
