Hi, Dennis --
I'm sorry to pepper you with questions, but I think this is really
important and I'm eager for the DAP interface in netcdf-4 to work well
with GrADS and the GDS.
No problem; I need all the feedback and bug reports
and opinions I can get :-) I want to get this right.
Requiring prefixes on OPeNDAP URLs is
inconsistent with libnc-dap and a pretty significant change to the
OPeNDAP user interface.
Actually, libnc-dap has always supported the prefixes,
although you probably never used them. I too would
like to get rid of them and hopefully the defaults will
be such that user rarely need them.
Can configuration options such as [fetchlimit=1]
be parsed from the user's .dodsrc file instead?
This is an open issue here in the netcdf group. Historically,
the use of environment variables or .rc files has been avoided
in favor of various flag setting extensions to the interface.
Also, if client-side
cacheing is disabled, will that append the '?varname[constraints]'
syntax to requests like 'GET model.dods'?

Yes, it will ask for a specific variable only and will do so using
dap projection constraints.
