= Developments to be done for CMIP6 version 2=

We proposed to construct a new TRUNK for ORCHIDEE that would be based on ORCHIDEE-CAN and would serve as the version V2 for CMIP6 to be ready for 2017.

A synthesis of the ORCHIDEE-CAN new features compared to the TRUNK is provided in the following document together with a proposition of different steps for the integrations of these developments into the TRUNK  (see [attachment:ORCHIDEE-CAN_v1.docx ORCHIDEE-CAN merge document])


= Progress of the anticipated developments =
