Hello-

We just recently clamped down our majordomo setup to tighten
security so list and listinfo commands no longer work. Spammers
were using them to collect e-mail addresses.

I just put out a new release which can be accessed at:

http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/IDV/release/idv_1.2rc1/index.html

hopefully you got the list sent to the lists.

Thank you.

Yes, I don't think you can merge these.

>(you find a cylinder connverted this way attached)

I'll talk to Bill Hibbard about that.  I'd be interested in
what you find.

Yes, Time is the global VisAD RealType for Time related variables, 
just as Latitude and Longitude are for spatial variables.  The
VisAD netCDF adapter uses these intrinsics for variables that
relate to the quantity (i.e. time->Time, lat->Latitude, lon->Longitude).
