[netcdfgroup] A Go library for NetCDF classic files

I just posted the message below to the
golang-nuts<https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!forum/golang-nuts>mailing
list, and it occured to me that apart from Go users who'd like to
use CDF, it could also be relevant for CDF users who'd like to use
Go<http://www.golang.org>
 .

It's a bit rough but ready for use and feedback:
code.google.com/p/lvd.go/cdf<http://code.google.com/p/lvd/source/browse/?repo=go#hg%2Fcdf>
is
a native Go library for reading and writing
NetCDF<http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs/index.html>
'classic'
format, V1 and V2 files.  The HDF-based NetCDF-4 format is not supported.

It is intended to be (much) lighter weight than a CGO wrapped C++ library
would be and produces bit-for-bit identical files to the C++ counterpart
(if you find a counterexample please let me know).  This is not a
particularly fast format to store large datasets, but there are tons of
tools out there that read and write it, so it should be convenient to
interface your Go programs with those.

Let me know if it doesn't do what you expect.
