[MITgcm-devel] inconsistencies with density conversion

[Jean-Michel Campin]

Hi Ian,

I've made checkpoint62w half an hour ago (11.am EST) after updating
tag-index.

I had to check-in new output*.txt, see e.g.:
http://mitgcm.org/pipermail/mitgcm-cvs/2011-April/022714.html
because it seems you did not use a standard version of MITgcm,
and those funny lines in the output*.txt were making
few files bigger than they should be. e.g., in 
verification/offline_exf_seaice/results, with 11520 funny lines:
-rw-r--r--. 1 jmc 964425 04-25 17:20 output.seaicetd.txt
and with standard code:
-rw-r--r--. 1 jmc 250162 04-26 11:39 output.seaicetd.txt

I did not see this (and I've checked):
> I documented the change in tag-index.
so I added my own words before the tag (so that it's
part of checkpoint62w).

You can go for step.2
