<p>Hi Jenifer,<br>
Actually we wanted to install this older version for two reasons:<br>
1) It automatically open netcdf files having 365 day calender. Actually we handle our GFDL model output files in FERRET and writes a netcdf which can not be opened with opengrads latest version even specifying 365 day option using xdfopen and it needs full ctl. So we generally have this issue with many different netcdfs each has unique lat, lot and height coordinates.</p>
<p>2ndly we wanted to do EOF Analysis.</p>
<p>So plz help us to install this older version.</p>
<p>Regaeds,</p>

Hi Jennifer,<br><br>Thank you for your quick response. Actually, one of our system users needs this version precisely because some of his netcdf files are handled in this version quite nicely than the latest version.</div>
