Testing summary: regular
----------------

[PASS means all tests PASS; OK means tests PASS other than expected fails.]

build-namelist tests (if CLMBuildNamelist.pm has changed):

derecho - OK

python testing (if python code has changed; see instructions in python/README.md; document testing done):

derecho - I ran it and there were fails but previous versions had this as well
One problem was with the NEON server, so outside our control

derecho ----- OK
izumi ------- OK
