[McIDAS #BBT-482339]: McIDAS-X under CentOS 7?

Hi Heather,

re:

> ago, you said that Unidata McIDAS had not been tested on CentOS 7.
> 
> Has it been now?

Yes.  One of SSEC's testing platforms is RHEL/CentOS 7.  I have built
and run Unidata McIDAS-X under CentOS 7, and everything I tried seemed
to work correctly.  I must add, however, that my testing did not include
XCD decoding.

re:
> Is everything good to go?

As far as I can tell, yes.

re:

> on them.

I was informed by SSEC (MUG) that Northrup Grumman had not renewed its
MUG membership, so I was directed to remove/block its access to Unidata
McIDAS-X/XCD.  Has this situation changed recently?

Cheers,

Tom
