Dave,

The netCDF is copyrighted but freely available code.  It might be best
to review the netCDF information on our WWW page.  Go to the Unidata
homepage:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/

and follow the link to netCDF.  Under that link you will find information
about the netCDF copyright.  I can tell  you that a number of packages rely
on netCDF, and there is no problem in using it.
