Hello Karl, Bob,
Sorry to labour this, but can you clarify (I don't know enough about map files and esgpublish to know the answer). Do you expect addition of new files to a currently published data set to trigger a new DRS publication version (so the vYYYYMMDD bit changes in the DRS)?
If not can you clarify under what circumstances you expect data publishers to generater new DRS publication versions, and when its OK for them to update a current version. [I think you - users, data providers, data node admins etc - get a better view of the history of the dataset if you always update the version - which I think ties in with what Ashish said. Even if this isn't ESG policy I think it is a good policy for CMIP5.]
I *suspect* there may be a communication issue here and not everyone has the same understanding of what should happen.
Thanks,
Jamie
