Please, please, please don't write out ""netCDF"" files that don't conform to the [spec](http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs/file_format_specifications.html#netcdf_4_spec). Either work with us to try to add the needed features to the spec (and the C-library) or call them something else. The spec exists for a reason. When such non-conformant files are distributed (and they will be), this creates a needless support load for the netcdf-c and netcdf-java developers (not to mention netCDF4-python). 

>Yes, I suppose so (and this should be fixed). h5netcdf currently writes the _NCProperties attribute to all files, though it uses a custom format that could be detected.

You're not actually saying the netCDF-c library should check for this custom format, are you?","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,253476466
