Yes (of course) I know.
Currently, we have a plan about next release.
1. License.
From
https://github.com/SciRuby/sciruby/wiki/Gem-and-Subproject-Checklist,
"GPL is not permissible."
The ruby-netcdf were released under GPL-2 or Ruby's License because
of compatibility for MRI. It's the same license of old MRI <= 1.9.2,
*not custom open source license* !.
We have plan to change license same as MRI >= 1.9.3 (BSD or Ruby's).
2. NMatrix support
Not yet Implement. Because of the speed of nmatrix, the nmatrix
support is postponed any other (real) work, unfortunatly.
Edmund, if you have to plan to update add nmatrix support into
ruby-netcdf, I'm very happy. Please let me know your work.
