Hi Jean-Michel,
the code with simple thermodynamics ("shelf-ice-ocean interaction") is 
ready, which doesn't mean, that it is free of problems (e.g, I have not 
had a close look at the effects of shelfice on vertical mixing, but I 
assume that I need to do something about that, too). But I would like 
to t check it in anyway, since it requires more than one hook, where 
there routines are called from, and that would be difficult to maintain 
up-to date, if it's not in the main code (also I would like you to give 
me some advice on how to do things better (o:).
Do you still agree to add the package or should I rather put it on the 
development branch?

Martin
