NetCDF-Java 4.6.6 has been built and published, but not yet announced. I would like to upgrade GeoTools and GeoServer master and stable to use it (master first, then cherry-pick onto stable). GeoTools and GeoServer currently use NetCDF-Java 4.6.2.
The main feature I want is improved support for rotated pole projections in GRIB2 files (I implemented support for GDS template 32769 in NetCDF-Java).
[GEOT-5434] Upgrade to NetCDF-Java 4.6.6
https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOT-5434
One change that may impact some users is the intentional removal of longitude normalisation in GRIB2 latitude/longitude files, introduced in NetCDF-Java 4.6.4 (before my changes). This requires a change in a unit test.

Pull request for GeoTools master:
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/1211
Pull request for GeoServer master:
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/1640
Once these PRs are merged, if there are no objections, I will cherry pick these changes onto 15.x / 2.9.x .
Kind regards,
