MODEST is a loosely knit initiative of groups working in stellar dynamics, stellar evolution, stellar hydrodynamics, and observations of dense stellar systems. Our aim is to provide a comprehensive software framework for large-scale simulations of dense stellar systems, within which existing codes for dynamics, stellar evolution, and hydrodynamics can be easily coupled and compared to reality. The long-standing goal of combining "live" stellar evolution codes directly with N-body simulations has been realized, and we have reached consensus about software standards and interfaces, what is needed, and what is doable. On this web site we will provide up-to-date information about our activities, and pointers to various projects in progress, including coordination with Virtual Observatory projects around the world.
