Are we any closer to this? Since NAWIPS is supposedly an open project, is
there any reason we can't get the files direct from NCEP if there will
always be such a long delay between their release and Unidata's? Would be
easier and better for all if the community put in the changes needed
instead of tying up Unidata resources?

Rob and GEMPAK Users:
Unidata is planning to release GEMPAK 6.0/6.1 this summer.
GEMPAK 5.11.4 is the current release and is available at
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/gempak/
Some minor code updates and bug fixes for 5.11.4 are currently underway,
with plans to roll the 6.0/6.1 NCEP updates into Unidata's GEMPAK package
soon after.
FYI the NCEP release notes for 6.0 and 6.1 can be found at
http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/sib/nawips/ - 6.1 is described as a "minor
release with bug fixes, table updates and one main modification which are
outlined below."
