Re: [CF-metadata] Standard Names to support Trac ticket 99
Many thanks, I'll have a look at Section 6 and get back to you if I've any further queries or issues. I wasn't sure how much had changed since 1.5 and consequently whether you're previous comments were still valid. Cheers, Roy. I have now retired but will continue to be active through an Emeritus Fellowship using this e-mail address. From: CF-metadata on behalf of Jonathan Gregory Sent: 12 July 2018 17:48 To: cf-metadata@cgd.ucar.edu Subject: Re: [CF-metadata] Standard Names to support Trac ticket 99 Dear Roy Ah, OK. Thanks. Having thought about that, I went to look at ticket 99, and found that I'd said the same thing five years ago in comment 1. As you see, I'm bit-reproducible. I propose that we should tidy the CF document by promoting 6.1.1 on "Geographic regions" to 6.3 (i.e. remove it from 6.1), and adding yours as 6.4. Then 6.1 and 6.2 will describe mechanisms in CF, and 6.3 and 6.4 applications of these mechanisms. Does that seem OK?
