Re: netCDF 2.4 for the T3D

Hi Steve,

You sent a note to Jeff Kuehn and CC:ed me about your port of netCDF 2.4 to
the T3D:

Thanks for providing your changes!

Sorry for taking so long to get back to you, but we have decided to
integrate your changes into our netCDF 2.4 release, even though it will
delay the release by a couple of weeks.

Steve Emmerson <address@hidden> will be doing the work and testing
it on NCAR's T3D, so if there are any questions about it, he'll let you
know.

We probably won't try to get the C++ interface working for this release
either.  Thanks again for the excellent package of changes and all your
work!
