| NCI-based users of ACCESS-OM3 typically won't need to download this repository, as there are pre-built executables available on NCI (see the [quick start](https://github.com/COSIMA/access-om3/wiki/Quick-start)). | ||
| This repository only stores the model source code. Model configurations are available from branches in [github.com/ACCESS-NRI/access-om3-configs](https://github.com/ACCESS-NRI/access-om3-configs), which use pre-built executables available on [NCI](https://nci.org.au/), so NCI-based users of ACCESS-OM3 typically won't need to download this repository unless they need to make model component code changes. |

Worth also including a link to the build repo here do we think? As in https://github.com/aCCESS-NRI/acceSS-OM3 ?
It'll be mentioned here eventually in any case (Yes, that needs to be updated)

| ACCESS-OM3 is a global coupled ocean - sea ice - wave model being developed by [COSIMA](http://www.cosima.org.au) and [ACCESS-NRI](https://www.access-nri.org.au/). It consists of MOM6, CICE6 and (optionally) WaveWatch3, coupled with NUOPC and driven by prescribed surface forcing - see [here](https://access-om3-configs.access-hive.org.au/pages/Architecture/). |

To avoid user confusion, I think it's worth highlighting that the new build system doesn't use this repo. I'm just thinking it would be worth being clear about why a user might be interested in looking at this repo (i.e for older alpha builds but not the current or released ones)

OK, maybe we should just state up front that this is deprecated?

okay, yeah I think that's a good idea. There's very few people that are going to be wanting to download/browse this I suspect, now added deprecated everywhere, see 99bbc20
