Sure!  The more eyes the better.

The most recent and extensive try was done by Scott and Grant Euen (presented at Grant's poster at AGU). I am not sure if anyone tried the Stokes flow / topography / geoid setup though, at least I did not, and I agree with John it might be very useful to have those.

This might also be a possibility to test the geoid post processors that people worked on during the last hackathon. Ian and Shangxin, if you’re willing to share I could test your geoid post processors (just let me know if the ones that are on your github repositories are up to date or update them if they aren’t).
