Howdy all! Here at NetCDF World Headquarters, we are preparing the 4.1 release of the netCDF C/Fortran libraries. There are many exciting new features in this release, including: * Remote data access with the new built-in opendap client. * Reading of existing HDF4/HDF5 data archives with the netCDF C/Fortran APIs. * A completely rewritten ncgen, which now fully supports netCDF-4. * Use of parallel-netcdf library to do parallel I/O on netCDF classic and 64-bit offset format files. * The nc-config script to help build netCDF programs. * UDUNITS now distributed with netCDF. * The ability to compress netCDF-4/HDF5 data with szip compression. (JUST ADDED!)
Ed: I'd like to try out the szip compression, but I only see instructions on how to build with szip enabled. Are there any docs yet showing to use szip instead of zlib for compression?

Now would be a great time for our dedicated user community to download the daily snapshot, let us know that it builds cleanly, and try out some of the new features. Get the latest snapshot here: ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/snapshot/netcdf-4-daily.tar.gz Build it according to instructions here: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs_snapshot/netcdf-install.html#Quick-Instructions Report results (good or bad) to the support email address: support-netcdf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Thanks!
