Re: Netcdf CDM and ragged arrays



Great stuff I look forward to the next release. I think we may of solved part of the issue.

Thank you for looking in to this for us. Will the 4.3 be uploaded to the unidata website and available for download?

The next CDM  4.3 release will fix these, possibly this week.
