/** \defgroup v2_api The Version 2 API

NetCDF's modern history began with the introduction of the V2 netCDF
API by Glenn Davis and Russ Rew in 1991. (The V1 API is lost to mists
of time.)

The V2 API is still fully supported, but should not be used for new
development.

All of the V2 functions have been reimplemented in terms of the V3 API
code; see the documentation for the related V3 functions to get more
documentation.

The V2 API is tested in test directory nctest.
