Hi Andrey,
Because of some change made recently to the code I had to make a change
in the verification setup and also the tool. As of this morning the regression tests
are working again. So to be sure - update the mitgcm source and contributions
and update and rebuild OpenAD. Once you did this and see problems please
send along the error messages so I can see some details.
