All,

I have a third agenda topic to add for the December 4th meeting. I'd like
to discuss the possibility of adding two new global attributes for the
product and product generation software versions.

Name: product_version
Description: The version identifier of the product based on the algorithm
or methodology applied.

Name: software_version
Description: The version identifier of the software that generated the
data.

Please send your comments on the proposed attributes before next week's
ACDD meeting.

Thanks.

Phil
