New release of Objective-C wrapper for netCDF

[Mark Tracy <tracy454@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have released NetcdfStep version 0.5.0. After a stimulating  
discussion with Thomas Moore who has done something rather similar, I  
decided that some significant changes were in order.
* Implements netCDF-3.6.2
* Many methods replaced, renamed or redefined to better conform to  
Objective-C conventions
* Obsolete methods removed
* Much better error checking, handling and reporting
* A few new features
* A buffer overrun vulnerability removed
* Bugs fixed in memory allocation and 64-bit builds
* Many clarifications and corrections in the documentation
* Version 0.5.0 is not backwards compatible with 0.4
* Sample application updated to new API
* Mac OSX version only for now; GNUstep will follow soon.

As before, it provides an object-oriented interface to the full  
functionality of the netCDF library. The Mac OSX framework is a  
universal binary that may be installed by drag-and-drop into your  
Library. Full source code is included under an Apache-1.1-style open  
source license.

The complete Mac OSX distribution is at http://www.mt-se.com/pub/ 
NetcdfStep-0.5.0.dmg

I welcome your comments.

Cheers,
