    Hi,

    I just stumbled across a German project from
    Max Planck Institute (MPI :) Hamburg called the
    Climate Data Operators (CDO)

    http://www.mpimet.mpg.de/~cdo/

    Some similarities to NCO are kind of eerie, while other features
    are quite original, and everything is implemented differently.
    NCO feels kind of...marsupial by comparison.

    CDO has  lots of great features and ideas and very clean code.
    This includes a full parser, regridding, pipes.
    Their author (one guy) really knows how to code for climate data.
    Check it out for cool ideas and a very different design.
    If this sparks your urge to change NCO, let's discuss it...

      Hi CHarlie & Harry,
      Why don't we do some benchmarking against CDO ?

        A little friendly competition would keep things interesting.
        Once CDO releases their version 1.0.0, let's compare an operation that both NCO and CDO can do, like averaging.
        The loser will eat sauerkraut prepared by the winner.
