Yup, there is a LOT of data in CONDUIT!

Just so you know: currently CONDUIT contains both the 0.5 AND 1 degree GFS 
data.  The Unidata
Users Committee sent a questionnaire to the CONDUIT community in June (or end 
of May) asking
what in CONDUIT could be deleted and what new things were desired.  It seemed 
to us that the
1 degree GFS would not be needed since the 0.5 degree GFS output was there, but 
some sites
noted that they either could not get the 0.5 degree data due to bandwidth 
limitations, or
they wanted the 1 degree GFS because it was less of an impact on their routine 
processing
activities.

Cheers,

Tom
