Hi there NetCDF'ers,
We've been working [1] on integrating NetCDF support into Apache Tika [2].
Tika uses Maven2 as its build tool, and I was having trouble finding a copy
of the NetCDF jars in the Maven Central repos. Would you guys be willing to
upload/publish the NetCDF jars into Maven Central so that we could integrate
them into Apache Tika? Right now, I've worked around this problem by using
the following external NetCDF repo [3], but as Jukka Zitting informed me on
the Tika mailing lists, per current Maven policies, it's bad practice to
reference external repositories in POMs meant to be released to Maven
Central [4]. It looks like you guys had some discussions about this before
[5], but it's unclear if a consensus was reached.
Please let me know, your help would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Chris
