This document proposes an architecture for implementing thread-safe access to the netcdf-c library. Here, the term 'thread-safe' means that multiple threads can access the netcdf-c library safely (i.e. without interference or deadlock or race conditions). This does not mean that the library is itself multi-threaded. Rather, access to the library is serialized so that only one thread at a time is executing the library code.
