8 The NASA CDF data model, to which netCDF owes much, was developed by
9 Michael Gough and Lloyd Treinish. Joe Fahle designed a C version for a
10 CDF-like interface and discussions with Joe provided much of the
11 inspiration for the original netCDF C interface. The netCDF C library
12 and first version of the Java interface were written by Glenn Davis. The
13 nctest test suite, ncdump, ncgen, the original C++ interface, and most
14 of the original User's Guides were written by Russ Rew. The Fortran77
15 test code was written by Cathy Cormack. The configure-based installation
16 system, vars and varm array access implementation, Fortran77 interface,
17 and original perl interface were written by Steve Emmerson. The netCDF-3
18 interface design and the nc\_test exhaustive test code were developed by
19 Glenn Davis and Harvey Davies. The Fortran77 interface uses Burkhard
20 Burow's cfortran.h package. John Caron wrote the subsequent netCDF Java
21 implementations. The Fortran90 interface and User's Guide were developed
22 by Robert Pincus. Ed Hartnett updated and simplified the configure-based
23 installation, enhanced Windows support, refactored the documentation
24 while converting it into texinfo, and is the primary developer for
25 netCDF-4. Dennis Heimbigner wrote the netCDF-4 version of ncgen, the C
26 OPeNDAP client, the dispatch layer, and the implementation of diskless
27 files. The nccopy utility was added by Russ Rew. Lynton Appel developed
28 the C++ implementation for netCDF-4. Ward Fisher developed the netCDF
29 Windows/Microsoft Visual Studio port and implemented the portable
30 CMake-based netCDF build and test system.

113 Development and implementation of netCDF is supported by the National
114 Science Foundation, Unidata's primary sponsor. Development of the
115 netCDF-4 interface was initially funded by NASA's Earth Science
116 Technology Office. Addition of OPeNDAP client support to the netCDF
117 library is based on work supported by the National Science Foundation.
118 Any opinions, findings and conclusions or recomendations expressed in
