[Esip-documentation] Documentation telecon Wednesday Nov 20 noon EST

[Nan Galbraith]

I also missed the meeting, but I've noticed all the updates to the ACDD 
working
page - thanks, John! I added some bits of info about the attributes that 
come
from NUG and CF; IMHO we should be clear that these are not exactly 'ours'.

Also, on the 'Discussion' page, I added some excerpts from the recent email
thread about Conventions vs Metadata_Conventions attributes. I'm not sure if
we've officially deprecated Metadata_Conventions, based on that thread, 
but I
went ahead and added Conventions to the 'highly recommended' section of the
working page (on the 'Page' side).  (I also capitalized Conventions 
while I was
editing, per the NUG).

Cheers - Nan

In the course of actually trying to implement NetCDF + COARDS + CF + NODC NetCDF  + ACDD per the latest recommendations on the Working page, I've found some issues. So I will continue to update that Working document unless/until someone says I shouldn't.

Please let me know if you know of a nice description of a standard way to represent 3D (lat/lon/depth) region with WKT?
