Carol:

We encourage netcdf users to share code and binaries.
Having machine specific binaries available on sites such
as yours actually saves us effort.

I would probably be a good idea to include some sort of
reference to the netcdf home page,
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf
with your distribution or in your README, so that
folks could track the source release if they wish to.

Let me know the URL of the NEC binary, and we will add a reference
to it in our netcdf area.

Thank you.
