-+ Month Day 2017 :: change $Revision$
++ May 5th 2017 :: major changes to model_mod interfaces  $Revision$
 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 
+A long-awaited overhaul of the model_mod interfaces. All models which are
+in our subversion repository and are supported in the Manhattan release
+have been updated to match the new interfaces.  If you have model_mods with
+extensive changes, our recommendation is to diff your changes with the version
+you checked out and insert those changes into the new version.  The changes for
+this update are unfortunately extensive.
+
+The detailed list of changes: 
+
+model_mod::get_state_meta_data() is no longer passed an ensemble_handle as the
+first argument.  it should not do vertical coordinate conversion.  that will be
+done as a separate step by convert_vertical_state()
+
+model_mod::vert_convert is replaced by convert_vertical_state() and convert_vertical_obs()
+Any vertical conversion code that was in get_state_meta_data should be moved
+to convert_vertical_state() which has access to the state vector index, so the
+code should move easily.
