Hi Martin,

Test results should appear on our site within an hour of the email being
received since the update scripts are run every hour (at :20 past).
Things that could be going wrong are most likely email delivery
failures.  I'll look into the logs on our side and see what we've
received in the past week or so.  And you can test email delivery on
your side by adding a few extra emails to the testreport list:

  ./testreport ...other options... \
    -a 'edhill at mitgcm.org other at someplace.com martin at work.edu ...'

and then confirming whether or not they get delivered.

Also, our testing page gets "refreshed" every month and the last testing
page for the old month goes into a "testing archives" that is linked
from the main testing page (in the middle):

  http://mitgcm.org/testing.html
  http://mitgcm.org/testing/results/

The archives show that your Sun machines "rays1" and "model" were indeed
working through most of April & May.

Ed
