[netCDF #SRQ-176890]: Is this the correct mailing list?

Hi Roland,

> 1) Is this the correct list to ask questions about how to

This is the correct place to get answers to netCDF questions from the
developers.  Our Windows expert is out of the office until next week, so
I'll try to answer your question.  We sometimes suggest asking questions
to the larger netcdfgroup mailing list when they are about platforms we
don't have access to for testing.

I'm not sure where you asked the question previously, but apparently we
missed it.  In particular, I looked at netcdfgroup mailing list postings
(which go to about 700 people on the list), but could not see a posting
from you:

The library has been built from source on Windows.  The current situation
with Windows is explained here:

We'll try our best to answer your questions here.  There are only two
of us handling most netCDF questions, so meetings, vacations, and other
conflicts may delay responses.
