Unidata Mailing Lists Unidata Mailing Lists
Unidata maintains topical mailing lists to enable Unidata users to exchange information freely on topics of mutual interest. We also maintain an archive of messages exchanged on these lists, as well as an archive of support-based messages between Unidata developers and the community.
List Names and Descriptions

These lists are provided as a service to user community and are of little or no interest to anyone outside the UCAR/Unidata organization.

NOTE: Anyone posting to a list in an attempt to advertise or sell goods/services will be immediately unsubscribed and banned from the list.

Need to contact the Unidata community? Learn how to post announcements via our mailing lists and on our website.

netcdf-porting
@unidata.ucar.edu
netcdf-porting is an unmoderated mailing list for questions and discussion of porting netCDF to new platforms. Although we try to support most platforms, it is not possible for Unidata to support all platforms. Currently supported netCDF platforms can be found on the daily testing web pages for netCDF-3 and netCDF-4. All other platforms are unsupported. Since netCDF has already been ported to many platforms, getting it to build and test on a new platform is usually not difficult. Bug reports (including build problems on currently supported platforms) should be sent to support-netcdf@unidata.ucar.edu. General purpose discussion of netCDF should take place in the netcdfgoup mailing list.

netcdfgroup
@unidata.ucar.edu
netcdfgroup is an unmoderated mailing list for announcements, discussions, bug reports, and questions about netCDF software. Typical postings include announcements of new versions, patches, and bug fixes; questions about representing specific data relationships using the netCDF model; general discussions about scientific data access, including the use of other interfaces; and discussion of issues and priorities affecting the further development of the netCDF interfaces and software. Questions and discussion about porting the software to new platforms should be in the netcdf-porting mailing list.
