Research direction
Start by reading the linked ECMWF newsletter and confirming whether the ERA6 dataset has been released. Then inspect how atlite currently supports reanalysis datasets and identify the entry points and tests that would need coverage. Done means ERA6 is supported with verified behavior, but the issue does not name specific files or tests.
