[MITgcm-devel] new checkpoint67r today

[Jean-Michel Campin]

Hi Gael,

I think you are right, most MITgcm checkpoints do not have a zenodo entry (& doi),
only few (a couple each year or something like that) do.

I am not sure that all "git-tag" (our "checkpoint) should be promoted as "release" version,
but the checkpoints that are put on zenodo are not necessarily much better "releases" that
the other ones, so there is indeed some confusion around MITgcm "release". 

Personally, I can leave with this, but could also be discussed in a GitHub issue (to get more
feedback).

Cheers,
jean-Michel

PS: Also seems that the frequency of documented "zenodo" version went down, so may be it's
    time to make a new one !
