 === Important notice on XIOS revision
 '''The official and supported version of XIOS is XIOS 2.5, which should be used from now on. '''[[BR]]
-{{{
-svn co ​http://forge.ipsl.jussieu.fr/ioserver/svn/XIOS/branchs/xios-2.5 xios-2.5
-}}}
 It has been tested and works with NEMO reference configurations, but if problems for now, try using XIOS 2.0 before requesting help through the XIOS users mailing list.

             * WAT:
 
+     * '''New Reference configurations
+         * AGRIF_DEMO: 2 interlocked zooms (1:4 & 1:3) in the Nordic Seas + 1 zoom (1:1) at the equator
+         * SPITZ12: regional configuration around the Svalbard archipelago 
+
      * '''Wave coupling
          * coupled interface to external wave model
          * large scale wave interaction process added in momentum and tracer equations
 
-     * ''' New sea-ice component
-         * New SI3 component (in place of LIMx), improvements in natural and computational sciences so as friendlier user interface
-         * Fully compatible with AGRIF 
-         * Benefitting from the gathering of multiple communications into one 
+     * ''' New sea-ice component SI3 (in place of LIMx)
+         * Improvements in physics
+            * landfast ice: simple grounding with a "release" stress (not fully operational)
+            * lateral melting
+            * melt ponds: constant or Holland 2012 formulation (and soon topographic melt ponds)
+            * ice-atm. drags from Lupkes 2012 (depending on ice concentration) or Lupkes 2015 (depending on sea ice concentration and atm. stability) 
+         * Improvements in numerics
+            * advection: Ultimate-Macho scheme
+            * rheology: adaptive EVP (Kimmritz 2017)
+            * coupling interface: conductivity as surface forcing instead of heat fluxes (Met-Office requirement)
+         * Improvements in performance
+            * all thermodynamics in 1D
+            * reduced mpp communications
+         * Users & developers friendly
+            * comprehensive set of outputs (universal units and understandable names + includes cmip)
+            * new architecture and namelist
+            * all processes can be decoupled from each other (switch on/off)
+            * ice categories bounds can be defined by the user or set automatically
+            * for open boundaries, the number of ice categories from the forcing model can be different from the number of categories in the regional simulation
+            * fully compatible with AGRIF
