> Browse to [github.com/ESMValGroup](https://github.com/ESMValGroup). This is our 'organization' GitHub page. Have a look around. How many collaborators are there? Do you know any of them? You should see 2 main repositories: ESMValTool and ESMValCore. Clicking on them will take you to there. How many people have contributed to each of them? Can you also find out how many people have contributed to this tutorial?

You should see tabs for 'issues' and 'pull requests'. You can use the labels to navigate them a bit more. How many open issues are about enhancements of ESMValTool? And how many bugs have been fixed in ESMValCore? There is also an 'insights' tab, where you can see a summary of recent activity. How many issues have been opened and closed in the past month?
