@martinjuckes, [CF section 2.3](http://cfconventions.org/Data/cf-conventions/cf-conventions-1.8/cf-conventions.html#_naming_conventions) says:
> Variable, dimension, attribute and group names should begin with a letter and > be composed of letters, digits, and underscores.` However, your opening statement seems to contradict: > The CF Convention does not impose any restrictions on the character set used > in variable and attribute names. What is your interpretation? Is section 2.3 advisory only, or did you miss that? -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
