20030930:BADC IDD feeds



Hi Kevin,

Yes, the joys of parenthood...

It would be good if you could upgrade to 6.0.14, it has improved
performance and elimination of some bugs..

I will place the allow for CONDUIT (NCEPH) this am on atm.geo.nsf.gov and
notify you..OK, the allow is in.

I am anxious to see how this feed propogates over the Atlantic, thank you
for upgrading to 6.0.14.


Cheers,


Jeff
