RNetCDF -- R Interface to NetCDF Datasets

Dear all,

I just released version 1.0 of the RNetCDF R package on CRAN
(Comprehensive R Archive Network, http://cran.at.r-project.org/)
under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).

This package provides an interface to Unidata's NetCDF library functions 
(version 3) and furthermore access to Unidata's udunits calendar
conversions. The routines and the documentation follow the NetCDF and
udunits C interface, so the corresponding manuals can be consulted for
more detailed information.

The main aims of this package are:
- to provide full read/write access to all NetCDF datasets (supporting
  all external NetCDF data types)
- to provide a low level interface which allows the user to write his
  own (customized) NetCDF read/write functions in a simple way

This package requires Unidata's NetCDF and the undunits library already 
installed on the system.


Feedback is greatly appreciated.

Pavel


I would like to thank Juerg Schmidli for his excellent comments and 
suggestions during the development process of this package and This
Rutishauser for testing the package from the user's perspective.
