I am just quietly following all the good ideas and solutions that you github experts are coming up with. Many thanks for this!
While we are at it, here is another thought: In the revision history I think that it would it be meaningful to have "subheadings" for each version of the conventions document together with its release data. The reason for this is that we are now and then discussing that in a file adhering to CF-1.X there might be a metadata construct that is defined/superseded/invalidated in a more recent version of the conventions, and that this is not a problem as it is known in which version a certain construct is introduced. E.g. something like > > * **Version 1.0, 28 October, 2003** > Initial release. > * **Version 1.1, 17 January, 2008** > 14 June 2004: > Added the section called “Lambert azimuthal equal area”. the section called > "Polar Stereographic" : Added latitude_of_projection_origin map parameter. > 1 July 2004: > 1/ Section 5.7, "Scalar Coordinate Variables" : Added note that use of > scalar coordinate variables inhibits interoperability with COARDS conforming > applications. > 2/ Example 5.13, "Multiple forecasts from a single analysis" : Added > positive attribute to the scalar coordinate p500 to make it unambiguous that > the pressure is a vertical coordinate value. > ... ... > 17 January 2008: > 1/ Preface : Changed text to refer to rules of CF governance, and > provisional status. > 2/ Chapter 4, Coordinate Types , Chapter 5, Coordinate Systems and Domain : > Made changes regarding use of the axis attribute to identify horizontal > coordinate variables. > ~~3/ Changed document version to 1.1.~~ > * **Version 1.2, 4 May, 2008** > 4 May 2008: > 1/ Section 5.6, "Horizontal Coordinate Reference Systems, Grid Mappings, and > Projections", Appendix F, Grid Mappings : Additions and revisions to CF grid > mapping attributes to support the specification of coordinate reference > system properties (Trac ticket #18). > 2/ Table 3.1, "Supported Units" : Corrected Prefix for Factor "1e-2" from > "deci" to "centi". (Trac ticket #25). > ~~3/ Changed document version to 1.2.~~ and so on, but of course properly formatted. This might take some manual work, which should not delay releasing 1.10 before if need be. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://github.com/cf-convention/cf-conventions/issues/345*issuecomment-1008780218__;Iw!!G2kpM7uM-TzIFchu!iagRwVjflPgUvkwTEN3uLGj_Dy_iQGZr0gQiOyqRYMwY7M5h__jOqArJrCOXAApUuEBLhMBVTcw$ You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
