Tom,

I sure hope not since it is copyrighted software.

The netCDF is supported by several commercial applications (like Dicer from 
Spyglass Software), but it is "owned" by Unidata/UCAR.

Sorry.  Does the fact that it is in use at other major government labs help
(e.g. LLNL, Los Alamos, Scripps, MIT Lincoln Labs, PNL, etc)?

>if any, for netCDF.

You should check out the FAQ for netCDF on our server which is accessible by 
Gopher.  This may help you.
