Hi Gerald:

You should be able to use it. The stability and code quality is moderately 
good. However, until we implement the NetCDF-4 reader, we are not sure if the 
API might need some (probably minor) changes. We anticipate a stable NetCDF-4 
format by fall of 2006.

Dear John,
I am trying to convert the GFS model output (Unidata provides resolutions
of 0.5 degrees only in Grib2 format) into a NetCDF file, but have not
found any fully working Grib2-to-NetCDF-converters so far (degrib also
does not provide full functionality).
When will NetCDF-Java 2.2 (which could probably do the job) be beta or
available as production release? Might the alpha version already be used
fo Grib2 decoding, or is it still to unstable?
Regards, Gerald
