  * What about the list of reference configuration? Could there be a coupled configuration (i.e. ESM-like) in the list? [Uwe Fladrich, EC-EARTH]
 
-The list of reference configurations is relatively small  today and should remain so: the role of reference configuration are: to help new users setting up a first use of NEMO (all inputs files are available, results of functionnal tests are available), and allow through the SETTE tool, to assess and validate a new development/release of NEMO. Thus, reference configurations are an important amount of work for System Team. This work should not be increased too much: main responsibility of System team is to develop the platform.[[BR]]Aside from the reference confiurations, there is the alternative to set up a "Shared configuration": shared by a community, but no support from System Team.[[BR]]It is a very relevant idea to have tools to assess coupling interface in NEMO. S. Masson gives some information on the ongoing work: in 3.6_STABLE, coupling interface will we compiled, even id not used (using fake OASIS routines), and a kind of "fake_ESM" is envisaged to be able to set up preliminary tests at run-time.[[BR]]Comment from U. Fladrich: EC_EARTH would be interested to take responsibility of an ESM shared configuration with NEMO ''(to be discussed further between EC-EARTH and System Team)''

- * What about the diagnostics when using variable volume layers [O. Marti]
- * We are going to develop the accounting of water isotopes in NEMO. Could this task be added in the workplan? [O. Marti]
+ * What about the diagnostics when using variable volume layers? [O. Marti]
+
+Indded, all diagnostics should be carefully reviewed when activating vvl since layers thickness now change every time step. This is going to be critical for users: concerns not only on-line diagnostics and outputs (done in the reference by System team), but also all the off-line diagnostics build by users. Need to send information, and maybe training for users.
+
+ * We (LSCE) are going to develop the accounting of water isotopes in NEMO. Could this task be added in the workplan? [O. Marti]
+
+Interesting to share this information within the community, and see if other groups are interested. If additional tasks where to be envisaged in workplan, need to come with additional manpower in System Team. ''To be further elaborated with System Team.''
+
  * I'm very interested in action "ROBUST-5 CMCC": OBC with BDY for biogeochemistry, when will it be ready? [J. Holt]
+
+T. Lovato, PI of this action, says will be ready next march. J. Holt says it's perfect.
