     Notes on tags used in MITgcmUV
     ==============================
 
+o move kSurfC,kSurfW 7 kSurfS from SURFACE.h to GRID.h (next to kLowC)
+  (to facilitate conversion of oceanic pkg to p-coordinate).
+o change FIND_RHO to FIND_RHO_2D : 
+  pass arguments tFld & sFld as local (tile) 2D-arrays ; +fix EOS_CHECK.
+o new pkg: cheapaml
+
+checkpoint61b
+o exch2: 
+  change index bounds in rx2_cube exchanges (new S/R: EXCH2_GET_UV_BOUNDS)
+  - no longer depend on the order sequence (N,S,E,W).
+  - 3rd exchange no longer needed (tested with 24 tiles).
+  - same modif to hand-written adjoint S/R (global_ocean.cs32x15: zero diff)
+  - exch_UV_A-grid readily available (but not yet tested).
+  comment out 3rd exch call and remove copy of V to U at SE & NE face-corners 
+  (both are no longer needed) in exch_uv: no effect in forward run; but 
+   get truncation error differences with adjoint exch.
+o exch2: 
+ - change index-bounds storage (moved from target to local tile,
+   more intuitive this way) ; rename/remove some variables.
+ - change utils/exch2/matlab-topology-generator & code_mods accordingly.
+
+checkpoint61a
+o exch2/matlab-topology-generator: 
+  fix bug in index bounds for N-S internal exchange (hard to tell if this
+  had any effect on the solution).
+o pkg/mnc: small fix in mnc_handle_err: make sure that length of msgbuf
+  is exceeded
+o testreport: modify syntax of awk, so that it works also with 
+  awk, and not only with nawk and gawk
+
+checkpoint61
+o autodiff
+  Change default for TAF usage by removing argument '-nonew_arg'
+  This changes TAF subroutine argument list (ordering of active var.)
+  Omission of this flag leads to incompatibility w.r.t. TAMC
+  To restore TAMC-compatibility, need following modifs:
+  * use adoptfile tools/adjoint_options/adjoint_tamc_compatibility
+  * use CPP option #define AUTODIFF_TAMC_COMPATIBILITY
+  Tested TAF version is 1.9.22
+  N.B.: exch2 hand-written adjoint code currently not TAMC compatible

+--->>> Future checkpoints will ommit this flag by default.
+o pkg/generic_advdiff, os7mp: simplify and avoid division by zero.
+o pkg/grdchk: Add gradient check to etan0 perturbations.
+o pkg/exf: read ice area from file (#ifdef ALLOW_ICE_AREAMASK). 
+o pkg/autodiff: more flexibility in zeroadj. 
+  model/src: modifying do_oceanic_phys.F accordingly. 
 o pkg/ctrl: Bounds for (kapgm,kapredi,eddypsi) parameter estimation.
 o model/src and pkg/gmredi: GMREDI_WITH_STABLE_ADJOINT CPP option
   special setup of gmredi for which the adjoint is stable

 checkpoint59r
 o new S/R (pkg/mdsio/mdsio_facef_read.F) reading of sNx+1 x sNy+1 array
   from per-face file (take S/R READSYMTILE_RS out of ini_curvilinear_grid.F);
