What is the main reason you want this?
Would using netCDF from inside ZODB really be faster than what ZODB does no=
w?
How do you want to use the netCDF functionality? From inside Python or from=
=20
other software?

Ignore me if I ask stupid questions...

BTW, I just started using ZODB today, I'm also using it for numerical=20
calculations and I really think it kicks ass!
