Giovanni, 

No special permission is necessary. When possible, we do ask our sites to 
mention
Unidata in publication credits where applicable (for our NSF spnsors).
If you would like to publicize your accomplishments through either our
Electronic E-Zine, or the "site of the month" type of web page feature feel
free to let us know!

I will pass this along to the NCEP developers. You can edit your local copy of
$GEMHLP/hlx/hilo.hl2 if you desire.
