[Ncep.list.wwatch3.discussion-group] WW3 Trunk Updates and Final Set of Regtests before Public Release

[Jessica Meixner - NOAA Affiliate]

Hi Everyone,

Good news! I am currently running the final set of regression tests before
the public release.  There have been many updates to the trunk in the past
few weeks and  I'd like to draw your attention to several of the updates
and bug fixes.

First of all the version updates:
5.13: TSA
5.14: Extreme Waves
5.15: System track optimization

A few bugfixes/updates to draw your attention to (more bugfixes listed
below):
- ST4 default values have been updated (see description in the manual in
doc_edits)
- SMC grid documents have been moved to the smc_docs folder
- MPI Invalid Tag error issues that have been a problem on Crays have been
addressed with adjusting the MTAG* values
- w3_clean now has new options:
         (default): Clean-up the work, test and scratch directories
         -c: "clobber", also clean-up model directories and regtests
directories
         -m: also clean-up model directories
         -r: also clean-up regtests directories

List of other bug fixes are at the bottom of this email.

I will keep everyone updated on the progress of the public release.

Best,
Jessica
