Hi Ben,

one item is to correlate with the format extension template available on
Wiki page

https://portal.opengeospatial.org/twiki/bin/view/WCSrwg/FormatTemplate

The goal of this template is to achieve coherence among all format
extensions.
As netCDF is the first such extension, I am glad about any feedback /
suggestions on the template.
Also, I will happily be available for any discussion.

-Peter
