Ryan,
           These Python cookbooks are great. I learned a lot from them and
incorporating them in my applications. Few question for you

1) How do you go about handling polling with OPeNDAP and Python ?
2) What I usually do is open a urllib2 connection and sleep on a thread
till a GFS GRIB file is available and then grab it when it does become
available
3) I presume one can do a metadata OPeNDAP call and obtain the last value
of the "time" variable and wait till it is lesser than the current time ?


Comments appreciated,
Ashwin.
