Hi Samar,

I'll be on-line most of the weekend and I'll be glad to look over and,
if it doesn't break any existing stuff, check in your new package.  We
can also setup an account for you and give you CVS commit access so that
you can check in your own changes (provided that you please be careful
not to break any critical things!).

And, ideally, we would like to have at least one test case (typically a
few time steps on a small-ish domain) that exercises each new package so
that we can add it to:

  MITgcm/verification/YOUR_NEW_TEST

and continuously check that it keeps working as development moves
forward.  So if you have such a test case, could you please send a copy
of it along with the new package?

And if you'd like an account with CVS access (so you can check in things
directly), please let us know.  I'll be happy to quickly "walk you
through" our CVS setup if that'd be helpful.

Ed
