Release of PnetCDF 1.4.1

[Wei-keng Liao]

Hello to the PnetCDF community,

On behalf of the PnetCDF team at Northwestern University and Argonne
National Laboratory, I am pleased to announce the release of PnetCDF
version 1.4.1.

The source codes can be downloaded from
https://trac.mcs.anl.gov/projects/parallel-netcdf/wiki/Download

Here is a list of changes from the previous release.
 - Fortran header file "pnetcdf.inc" can now be included in both fixed
   and free-form Fortran programs
 - For nfmpi_put_att and nf90mpi_put_att family, the intent modifier
   for the put buffer arguments are now declared as INTENT(IN).
 - For nfmpi_put_var and nf90mpi_put_var family
   o On Big Endian machines, the the intent modifier for the put
     buffer arguments are now declared as INTENT(IN).
   o On Little Endian machines, the the intent modifier for the put
     buffer arguments are still declared as INTENT(INOUT).
 - Introduce "subfiling" feature that can divide a file transparently
   into several smaller subfiles, each of which stores subarrays in
   CDF file formats. 

A document that highlights the differences among CDF, CDF-2, and
CDF-5 file format specifications is available from the URL below.
