Hi

> Here is a talk about PP and basis set optimizations with cp2k:
https://www.cp2k.org/_media/events:2015_cecam_tutorial:ling_basis_pseudo.pdf
by S. Ling at the 2015 cp2k tutorial. Hope that helps.

Thorough testing of pseudos and basis sets is advisable before using them
in production runs.

Best,
Ralph
