+   '''Conclusion of the working group discussion: '''
+       We think that it will be easier to start our work from an already existing tools,rather than to restart from zero. We decided to based our future work on the
+       SIREN tools developed by Mercator-Ocean.
+   '''Description  of Mercator's configuration manager: SIREN : System and Interface for oceanic RElocatable Nesting'''
+    Siren is a software used to build and launch, quickly and easily, regional oceanic simulations. These simulations are initialized and forced at boundaries by Mer-
+    cator Ocean system. So thanks to Siren, a user can easily add some physical processes as tide, change some parameters, apply runo as a 
+ux, or use better
+    bathymetry, atmospheric forcing. . . and of course get a higher resolution. Siren uses Mercator Ocean regional code. This code, based on NEMO2.3, is used in
+    the regional Mercator Ocean operational system (Maraldi et al., in preparation), and has been customized to improve the physics of the model on the shelf.
+      . Siren extracts bathymetry from child 
+les and merges it with parent bathymetry at boundaries.
+      . Siren builds open boundaries condition 
+files from parent's con
+guration output 
+files.
+      . Siren creates runooff fi
+les over the area, and digs bathymetry to create a canal for rivers described as a 
+flux.
+      . Siren creates a new restart 
+le for a domain splitting from a given restart fi
+le or an output fi
+le.
+      . Siren compiles and launches NEMO2.3 on Mercator Ocean cluster.
+      . Siren makes some post-processings on the new con
+guration.
