Tentative program:
- introduction with an overview
- evaluation of ALARO-0 (local experiences, reporting the current implementations,...)
- ALARO-1 overview of current developments ((moist) turbulence and diffusive transport, radiative and radiative-cloud issues, condensation/evaporation associated processes (including deep convection) ...)
- exercise session (on namelist handling, phasing problems)
- future issues about modularity
- discussion
