Comparison of the files
The differences in the fire module files between the submitted version and the release can be seen in this comparison.
How was the comparison obtained
To track the files, branch WRF_release was created in our repository, starting from the files as submitted. One bug fix was applied, giving the final version submitted for the WRF release. We have then applied separately changes in the fire files in the WRF 3.3 release (http://www.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/src/WRFV3.3.TAR.gz), giving the comparison of the fire module files above. Finally, the rest of the changes in the WRF release was applied, giving the final files in the release.
