[Cdat-discussion] Re: CF-compliance and standard name list

[Dean N. W. <wil...@ll...>]

Hi Ag,

    It has been our intentions all along to make CDAT compliant with the 
CF metadata standards. In fact, version 3.3 currently, implements CF 
version 1.0. (Take a look a the CDMS document page 136  "CF Metadata 
Standard".) So, we will continue to support CF for CDAT-4.0....

Best regards,
    Dean
