Hi Ratko, I totally see your point, it is always best to have most 
cahnges in before starting. My only concern is time. I want to make sure 
we have enough time to work out the issues. There isn't only the svn 
based merge (with plenty of manual intervention as I foresee it), but 
then there is also the whole unification on the actual code (removal of 
#ifdefs). At this stage we will need to get the current "trunk mode" 
working under the unified NUOPC-based EARTH component. I was hoping to 
get to working on that maybe even by end of this week.

On the other hand, I am still cleaning up compsets as per a call we had 
on Tuesday. It is taking me longer than I thought, so even the 
NUOPC/development branch isn't quite ready yet.

If you don't mind, could you still just make copies of the 
REGRESSION_TEST dirs into REGRESSION_TEST_r74057? Just in case we do 
decide to start a first attempt of the merge work with that trunk 
revision? Thanks, and I appreciate your assistance during the process 
very much!

-Gerhard
