Hello all
In case it may be of any use, we are deploying the NetCDF libraries on
this Maven repository:
http://maven.geotoolkit.org/edu/ucar/
The pom.xml files should already have the dependencies defined as
accuratly as I can, and also contains metadata like the declaration of
MIT license, the links to UNIDATA web site and to the mailing list. So
if there us a volunter for uploading those artefact to the central
Maven repository, just copying the pom.xml with minor editions would
hopefully be okay.
http://maven.geotoolkit.org/edu/ucar/netcdf/4.1/netcdf-4.1.pom
I'm aware that the University of Florence also deploy the NetCDF
libraries, but they use a different groupID ("essi-unidata") and
artifactID. The GeoTools project used the "edu.ucar" groupID and
"netcdf" artifactID since NetCDF 2.2.20, and it seems to me that
"edu.ucar" is closer to the common practice (groupID are often similar
to the package names), so I continued on that path for the GeoToolkit
project.
The above Maven repository does not provide the grib.jar file, because
it depends on jpeg2000.jar and it was not clear to me if the jpeg2000
licence allowed me to distribute it. So I leaved it out for now...
I can can volonter for updating the pom.xml files for future 4.x
versions of the NetCDF library, but we would probably need someone
else with credential for uploading to the central repo.
Regards,
Martin

Hi Martin, Chris, Brian:
Some questions about maven to you experts. (Im also cc'ing Orion in case
this helps his "Fedora packaging problem"):
1) Is there a canonical repository, i.e. "Maven Central" ? Martin
already has it at geotoolkit.org, is that good enough?
2) We dont plan (yet anyway) to switch to using maven to build
netcdf-java. We are willing to upload jar files, and maintain pom files
(with your help), and anything thats reasonable that doesnt take much
time. What is the best way to do that?
