    <p>Hi Arun, <br>
    </p>
    <p>many thanks for your nice words. <br>
    </p>
    <p>Everybody should keep in mind that this is a new born baby we
      except that after we finish alpha and beta testing we will have a
      really great code. I really encourage as many as possible people
      to put their hands NOW or ASAP on the model, since this will
      greatly improve the final release. <br>
    </p>
    <p>It was really a great experience for me to work so tight with
      this nice youg enthusiastic scientist and I learned a lot myself
      and to be part of all this. With the help of the community we will
      get the most versatile wave model world wide, there is more to
      come ... real fun!</p>
    <p>We are not doing a 1st validation study and I hereby invite
      everybody to join our efforts. As by now we will work on the
      validation for the <br>
    </p>
    <p>- Med &amp; Adriatic <br>
    </p>
    <p>- Iroise <br>
    </p>
    <p>- Australia</p>
    <p>- GoM, East Coast <br>
    </p>
    <p>I am happy to assist in mesh generation and validation. The
      technical paper and the documentation of the new schemes is now
      ongoing and we are eager to have this done before beta testing. <br>
    </p>
    <p>Cheers &amp; happy modeling using triangles ... :)</p>

        so hard to get this capability in (well a series of
        capabilities. It was very  hard to get Aron to stop!). This is a
        significant milestone for WAVEWATCH III and we are very proud of
        the work done by this team. Now like any new significant
        development there are bound to be bugs so we would love for
        everyone to test drive this shiny new car and let us know all
        the issues that you find. Keep in mind that the real upgrade you
        will see is when you try to run the very high resolution grids.
        As always we rely on the community support to make this a

              <br>
              WAVEWATCH III is now at version 6.04 with the inclusion of
              the ugdev2 branch! A quick list of the updates are:<br>
              <ul>
                <li>Implicit time integration was added for unstructured
                  grids</li>
                <li>Domain decomposition was added for unstructured
                  implicit/explicit schemes using PDLIB (Parallel Domain
                  Decomposition Library) based on ParMetis</li>
                <li>The SHRD/DIST ISEA/JSEA process was updated with
                  GET_ISEA_INIT and GET_JSEA_INIT</li>
                <li>Improved preprocessing of unstructured grid arrays
                  was developed</li>
                <li>New and more efficient wetting/drying was added for
                  unstructured grids</li>
                <li>A new switch pre-processor WW3_switch_process</li>
                <li>MEMCHECK options was added to trace memory usage
                  during runtime constructing a new interface to MALLOC
                  and system msg.</li>
                <li>SETUP switch - implicit unstructured computation of
                  wave setup (experimental)</li>
                <li>Added various debug switches<br>
                </li>

              Please note that there were lots of changes made including
              various bug fixes.  The changes in the structured regtests
              if any, were small in magnitude. Due to the large amounts
              of changes, I would be a recommend making a test of your
              applications to insure there are no issues<i>.</i> If you
              do have problems, please create an issue describing it on
