All, I am pleased to announce the formation of The NetCDF Foundation, a new nonprofit corporation based in Boulder, Colorado. The NetCDF Foundation is dedicated to the support and advancement of the NetCDF software library and data format, essential tools for scientific data management and sharing. The Foundation will serve the global scientific community through continued development, maintenance, and promotion of NetCDF. We are applying for federal tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. We all hope that Unidata's funding is restored, providing continued institutional support for NetCDF. The NetCDF Foundation will work with and support our Unidata colleagues, providing assistance and backup distribution and documentation channels. If Unidata funding is further disrupted, the NetCDF Foundation can provide the support that netCDF users need. The NetCDF Foundation offers paid NetCDF support plans for institutional users. See our website for more information: netcdf.org. Keep on NetCDFing! Ed Hartnett
