netcdf-java for maven?

[Kris Nuttycombe]

Just a minor modification: in M2 you can also include the optional 
dependencies in the <dependencies> section, but each of them must 
contain the tag <optional>true</optional>.

For example:

    <dependency>
      <groupId>visad</groupId>
      <artifactId>visadNoDods</artifactId>
      <version>1.2.3</version>
      <optional>true</optional>
    </dependency>
