 To do
      Add an "Under development, chapter" - shortish description of what
      is available (last chapter)
+   - add in example latex for formatting author names in different pieces.
+     this aknowledges peoples contributions and gives ref for who
+     to talk to.
  o HTML, scripts and front content
    - pick a URL
      TBD
-   - mitgcm.org very front page.
-     o too many clicks to get to model manual.
-       make doc link go to mitgcm.org/r2_web_testing/latest

 In general:
  - would be nice to have an active link to the fortran-file
    for all the S/R & eq.Number in the "calling-tree" boxes
  - search for CALC_MOM_RHS and replace it by the appropriate S/R

  - Problem with notation: in section.1 \vec{\bf v_h} (or \vec{\mathbf{v}}_{h})
  was used for the horizontal velocity vector, and the 3.D vector was \vec{\mathbf{v}}
  in section.2, \vec{\bf v} is used instead and 3.D velocity vector is

 .20.2 mercator, non-dimensional Equations:
  - does not use std notation

  (e.g changing the tile to:
+ - talk to Baylor
   Appendix: non-dimensional Equations on Spherical-Polar grid.)
+  <- No (Chris said)
+ Diagrams of grid locations etc.... and what variables and output files
+ and/or netcdf variable names are not very easy to figure out and follow.
+ It would be good to redo and extend these diagrams and align with GRID.h
+ content.

+ >>>> From Andrea
+ Chapter 3
+ --------
+ Almost all of the 'math mode' text is dropped down as subscripts
+.4 - refer to sections 3.8 - 3.18 (now says 3.8 - 3.10)
+.4.1 - links to the following experiments don't exist or are broken:
+           exp2 - should link to section 3.9
+           hs94.cs-32x32x5 - link to section 3.12
+           add 'convection' to the list, link to section 3.13
+           add 'plume on slope` to the list, link to section 3.14
+           add '??' link to section 3.15
+           add 'dic_example on slope` to the list, link to section 3.16
+           add '??' link to section 3.17
+           add 'offline' and link to section 3.18
+           clean up others and make links where they are needed
+.4.2 - text suggests to see section 2 for details about what is in the 'code'
+         and 'input' directories - should refer to the examples in this section
+       - add 'build' bullet - this is where the model is compiled and exectuable lives
+.5 - add some little text when talking about 'optfiles' to refer to the tools/build_options
+       as the place where they live (add a link?)
+.6.1 - Add some general 'approach' text - ie, output is controlled either by the
+         'data' file in the input directory or by the data.[pkg name] file for any
+         package running. And there is some default behavior when the 'state' dumps
+         are written.
+.6.1.2 - needs to be moved to inside section 3.6.2
+ All the 'overview' sections need some reference to the name of the experiment in
+ the verification directory
+.10 - in title, 4 degrees - degree symbol is a subscript, not a superscript
+      - is this experiment in the list from section 3.4???
+.10.3.1 - refers to figures and equations, links are broken
+.11.3.2 - line 43: link to equation is broken
+          - line 51-53: link to equation is broken
+          - there is some mess of text hanging around the end of this section. remove? reformat?
+.12.4.1 - line 34 - link to equation is broken
+          - lines 60,61 - 1st (take out the 'r' in the superscript)
+.13.2 - link to theta-equation is broken
+.13.5.4 -- ALL of the bold links to variable names are broken
+             line 34: link to equation is broken
+.15.1 - reference to 'fourth experiment' should be removed
+.16.4 - strange formatting, presence of '>' symbols - remove them
+.17.3 - unknown verification directory pointed to - also: no link from list in sec 3.4
+.17.3.1 - nothing filled in under file input/data - needs description
+.18.2 - point to section 2 for details - need hyperlink
+.19.1 - text (2 places) says that section 3.5 called for compile in 'input' directory - not true!
+          section 3.5 has the 'build' directory in the example
+.20.1 - link to doc at end of section points to this section
+.20.2 - link to doc at end of section points to this section
+      offline - duplicate inputs, what is it, tidy up cfc v.
+                other offline. JM thinks these need tidying up.

  >>>> From Ed
  Here are the remaining bits for Chap 4 :
-  - The grammar/flow could still use some work.  Boo was an English
-    major and has experience editing/proofing technical papers.  I
-    could print out a copy and ask her to read it and suggest
-    improvements.
   - missing references (if you point me towards URLs, I'll add them
     to the bibliography):

+.5.1 - add Graphix to the list of stuff in utils/matlab (Daniel)
-.1.1 - links to section 7.1.4: the text of the first one should read "see MITgcm Kernel Diagnostics Menu"

- >>>> From Andrea
- Chapter 3
- --------
- Almost all of the 'math mode' text is dropped down as subscripts
- divide chapter 3 more clearly into 2 sections?
+. Publications using MITgcm --> "Previous Applications of MITgcm"
-    (ie, 3.1-3.6 are more informational, 3.8- 3.18 are examples, and
+    Spall, Gianmaria, Legg, Dewar, Cessi, Cournelle, Follows, Adcroft, etc...
-     then 3.19 and 3.20 are informational again - rearrange subsections?)
+    (check in support for more names)
-.1 - don't need a link to the outside of the document (remove it)
-     - link to htdig is broken
-.2.1 - link at bottom to source code points to section 3.2.1
-    (ie, to itself) - link should point to cvs code archive
-.2.2.1  - ('upgrading from an earlier version') belongs under
-       the cvs part, ie, should be 3.2.1.1
-.3 - remove reference to 'diags' section under MITgcm
-     - remove reference to 'exe' and 'bin' sections also
-       (remove the .cvsignore file under these directories in cvs)
-     - add a 'jobs' section, and a description as examples of run scripts
-     - add 'lsopt', 'optim' and 'tutorial examples' with brief descriptions
-     - under 'tools' add a reference to 'build_options'. refer to the 'optfiles'
-     - under 'tools' the adjoint points to section 5 - this is now section 8
-       (but should be a floating reference)
-     - under 'utils' add a reference to exch2 - stuff for different resolutions
-     - the description of the pkg section refers directly to
-       section 3. should be section 6 (actually should be a floating reference)
-.4 - refer to sections 3.8 - 3.18 (now says 3.8 - 3.10)
-.4.1 - links to the following experiments don't exist or are broken:
-           exp2 - should link to section 3.9
-           hs94.cs-32x32x5 - link to section 3.12
-           add 'convection' to the list, link to section 3.13

-           add '??' link to section 3.17
-           add 'offline' and link to section 3.18
-           clean up others and make links where they are needed
-.4.2 - text suggests to see section 2 for details about what is in the 'code'
-         and 'input' directories - should refer to the examples in this section
-       - add 'build' bullet - this is where the model is compiled and exectuable lives
-.5 - add some little text when talking about 'optfiles' to refer to the tools/build_options

-         are written.
-.6.1.2 - needs to be moved to inside section 3.6.2
-.7 - this section is superfluous - remove it -OR- put the tutorial sections (3.8-3.18)
-       underneath this one and leave the text for 3.7 in place
- All the 'overview' sections need some reference to the name of the experiment in
- the verification directory
