Hi,

A paper (really an extended abstract) to be presented at the 2006 AMS
meeting in Atlanta is now available online:

   http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/papers/2006-ams.pdf

   "NetCDF-4: Software implementing an enhanced data model for the
   geosciences" by Russ Rew, Ed Hartnett, and John Caron

The paper provides background on the netCDF-4 project, descriptions of
additions to the netCDF data model, and recommendations for data
providers and developers.  It may be useful in understanding the
status and future directions for netCDF.  We will also be presenting a
poster session on this work at the December AGU meeting in San
Francisco.

--Russ
