[mpas-developers] proposed date/time manager

[Jones, Philip W]

Ok all,

I've attached a tex and pdf of a set of revised requirements.

To prevent a close correspondence to implementation, I tried to stick with the current language, but you might consider a requirements doc along the lines of time instants, time intervals, and alarms.  Those three capture much of the functionality.

Also did this very quick since I'm under some other deadlines, so I'm sure there are things I haven't captured.  If the ESMF requirements doc for their time manager is still available on-line, it might be useful to browse that to see if we've missed something.  That doc was very comprehensive (I'll also look to see if I have an old copy lying around).

Phil
