16/09/2010

• introduction on forge ORCHIDEE wiki : create this page
• short words from Phillipe on the organization of those meetings
  • every two weeks
  • organize by Martial, supplied by Nicolas Vuichard
  • reports are done in the course of the meeting or just after
    and all participants have to read and perhaps correct the report
• presentation of work on externalization of parameters
  • definition of readding PFTs versus Meta-Classes : discution of idea of Didier versus Sebastiaan.
    We don't keep idea that definition of PFT are in MTC sets (Sebastiaan)
    But for clearing the def file, Nicolas has proposed that we give number of MTC for each PFT per line. Accepted.
  • simplification of all parameters in code : regroup all constant modules (MTC parameters) in src_parameters and stomate_constants (all participant are agreed ).
    Discussion on initialization functions
    We have to talk to all ORCHIDEE developpers before this fusion. Two steps 1 put all STOMATE constant in src_parameter 1 fusion if needed all constant files. Some SAVE values are not parameters and lot of MTC array are SAVE and will be PARAMETER.
