The purpose of this project is to create and improve tools for data
analysis by using Open Source development strategy. The starting
point for this project is the NCO software suite. NCO is a relatively
mature package which requires new ideas, features, and contributors
in order to remain a useful and vital application.
The netCDF Operators, or NCO, are a suite of programs known as
operators. The operators facilitate manipulation and analysis of
self-describing data stored in the netCDF or HDF4 formats, which are
freely available (http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf and
http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu, respectively). Each NCO operator (e.g.,
ncks) takes netCDF or HDF input file(s), performs an operation (e.g.,
averaging, hyperslabbing, or renaming), and outputs a processed netCDF
file. Although most users of netCDF and HDF data are involved in
scientific research, these data formats, and thus NCO, are generic and
are equally useful in fields like finance. The NCO User's Guide
illustrates NCO use with examples from the field of climate modeling
and analysis. The NCO homepage is currently
http://nco.sf.net

How to help develop NCO:
The best way to start contributing is to checkout the software from
the CVS repository on Sourceforge. The CVS repository contains the
latest, up-to-the-minute software. If you have never used CVS before,
you may just want to download the numbered tar.gz or RPM release,
whichever method you prefer. These will not contain any code changes
since they were released. Eventually, therefore, you must learn to
use CVS so that you can make serious code changes and keep up with the
development branch. NCO-specific instructions on how to check out the
code with CVS are posted to the Developer's forum on Sourceforge
http://sf.net/projects/nco/forums/forum/9831
in the message dated June 21, 2000.
Once you have NCO, build it! If you must make non-trivial
modifications to the Makefile in order to build on your platform,
then please submit those modifications as your first patch.
Once you have built NCO, peruse the user's guide and try a few
examples.
Read the contents of the Developer's forum! Subscribe to all the NCO
forums so that you are automatically CC'd when new messages arrive.
Post your questions and progress and ideas to the developer's forum
(frequently!) so that others may learn about your work. The
Developer's forum will help prevent duplication of effort and is
the key communication point for everyone involved in the project.
Once you have done all this, you are ready to choose an item on the
TODO list to tackle. For C hackers, dive in to the source code.
If hacking 500 line files of C functions is too intimidating, then
there are plenty of non-C ways to contribute.
Consider contributing improvements to the documentation (man pages
need work), web pages, or regression testing script (written in Perl).
In an open source project, YOU decide what needs to be done.
Perhaps HTML, Make, RPM, Debian packaging, autoconf are more your bag.
The important thing is to start learning NCO so you can decide for
yourself how best you can contribute. Then, as mentioned above, post
your questions and progress to the developer's forum where different
implementation strategies and technical details are to be discussed.
Thanks,
Charlie
