Test Cases

Icon	Status (progress and quality of test-case)
	documentation good enough for users to run simulations and contribute results
	recommended test-case, some reference solutions available
	recommended test-case, reference solutions confirmed and concensus reached
	Case now thoroughly checked and locked as it is used as reference in QA procedures
	suggestion for new test case, help welcome
	under construction, help wanted
	clarifications needed, help wanted
	some defects in reference data suspected, test case might be dropped
