  * Support for metadata attribute types has been added:
 
-  ||'''NCML type definition'''||'''NetCDF Type'''||
-  ||short||NC_SHORT||
-  ||int||NC_INT||
-  ||float||NC_FLOAT||
-  ||double||NC_DOUBLE||
-  ||String||NetCDF Text||
- * When translating between ADAGUC NetCDF4 files the metadata attribute types are kept. (Everything was converted to strings in V0.1)

+  ||String||NetCDF Text||[C]||

+ * When translating between ADAGUC NetCDF4 files the metadata attribute types are kept. The GDAL API is used to pass metadata in the form of Strings between drivers. Inside the ADAGUC NetCDF driver the metadata has the form of "NO2#[C]long_name=Nitrogen Dioxide". In this case the attribute 'long_name' with value 'Nitrogen Dioxide' is put as string to variable 'NO2'. '[C]' indicates that the metadata type is a String.
  * The attribute 'input_products' from the product variable is now correctly updated
  * The attribute 'history' from the product variable now lists dates at which the history was updated
