I found and fixed the bug. I did not
implement the libdap algorithm quite
correctly. The fix should be available
in the netcdf snapshot tomorrow.

Thanks for pointing this out.

Dennis: It is indeed fixed in the 9/11 snapshot.  Thanks again.

with netcdf-4.1-beta2, then get the time variable, it appears there are no attributes associated with it. Browsing the xml file

it does appear these attributes are defined, but somehow the client is not getting them.

Is it a bug in the way there are serving the data, or a bug in the opendap client in netcdf-4.1?
