Upcoming release of DODS 3.2.1 which includes several important bug fixes especially to the HDF server
Beta release of the DODS Aggregation Server, part of the Java/DODS Servlet library, allows physical files to be logically aggregated and served as a single DODS dataset. The Aggregation Server (AS) also presents all available datasets in an integrated THREDDS Catalog, and is also a netCDF file server. The configuration files are expected to change somewhat, and a 1.0 release will be made by the end of May, 2002. See DODS Aggregation Server for details.
DODS Java 1.1 is now available at DODS Java . The release has fixed many bugs from previous release 1.0, we redesigned and implemented Clause classed/interface, updated Sequences to match the DODS C++ 3.2 Sequences, added new server side functions, the servlets are now thread safe and the servlet distribution process has been greatly improved (now delivered as a .war file and setup parameters are now in the web .xml file).
The latest version of the MATLAB Graphical User Interface was successfully demonstrated at the Ocean Sciences 2002 meeting in Honolulu, 11-15 February 2002. After a few refinements are made and the documentation is updated, the new GUI will be released for general use.
