Re: [netcdf-java] NetCDF jars=>Maven Central Repos?

Hi James,

Are you able to provide an OPeNDAP java release under the Apache Software 
License, v2 [1]? That would *really* make OPeNDAP useable in a number of Apache 
projects that I'd love to use the API in (incl. Tika directly). 

Currently it looks like it's some BSD-style license [1]. 

Cheers,
Chris
