This is a minor "patch" release. The only significant change in model
results is in the QJOULE and QJOULE_INTEG secondary history
diagnostics. They will be 1.5x larger than in previous versions
because they are now provided *after* multiplication by the joule
heating factor. The calculation and use of joule heating has NOT
changed (so no change to TN or other fields). See joulefac in the
release notes for more detailed information.

Also note you should not use old job scripts from previous versions.
Use the Linux job script after extracting the download tar file, or
copy the appropriate job file from the scripts directory. Old namelist
input files will probably work, but if not, you can copy a default
namelist input file from the scripts directory.

Please contact me with any questions or problems.
