Francois,

i didn't forget about your request. the expansion ratio of grib2 -> netcdf
is between 1 -> 20 and 1  -> 50 so the resulting files are large, you
probably already know that. so we developed a program that permits one to
read in  a grib2 file into ncml, edit the "cdl", and then write out an
netcdf file with the desired paramters..  we are currently working on a
webstart release, it should be ready soon, hopefully tomorrow. also, can i
get some sample files for testing? the grib2 that i have are the ndfd,
eta2, and one other. like to have as many variations as possible.

robb...
