> To: address@hidden (John Caron) > Keywords: 199602291712.AA16736 Hi John, > Great news on releasing netcdf 2.4, especially the Cray optimizations. Thanks. > Any reason why you don't have linux as an officially released platform? Yes, only because we still have no convenient access to a Linux platform on which to test the release. We're planning on acquiring one, but could use some advice on the differences among the various commercial Linux releases out there. I've decided not to just support Linux ourselves off the net, because we're already short of systems administration resources and adding one more platform to keep updated would be a burden. --Russ
