[IDD #THF-747775]: FW: [ldm-users] Qualification for IDD

Hi Samuel,

re:

> of this nature?

Sites participating in the IDD are free to feed all ** NON RESTRICTED ** 
datastreams
(i.e., any feed except NLDN, WSI, PCWS, GEM, and NOGAPS) free-of-charge to 
sites of their
choosing.  Institutions acting as a relay for non-traditional Unidata sites can 
impose a
quid pro quo arrangement with the sites they feed, but this is unusual.
