Hi all,
I am new on this mailing list and I hope my question is not so obvious
My problem is with:
*At the adress :
*http://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/conformance/requirements-and-recommendations/1.5/
I find
*« 2.1 Filename*
*Requirements:*
* Filename must have ".nc" suffix."
But If I read the CF documentation
http://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/documents/cf-conventions/1.5/cf-conventions-multi.html
I find
"2.1. Filename
NetCDF files should have the file name extension "|.nc|". "
For me there is a difference between "must" and "should"?.
If i have another suffix than nc, can i be CF compliant?
The actual CF convention says "should", im not sure why
**http://cf-pcmdi.llnl.gov/conformance/requirements-and-recommendations/1.5/
says "must".
Anyway, you dont need to have your file end in ".nc" to be CF compliant.
