Dear Seth, Aleksandar > I believe this is correct; a 'time' has to be a numeric value.
In CF, that's right. A quantity with a standard_name of time has to be in time units according to udunits. What is the reason for needing to use a string-valued time? Couldn't the information be represented as a numeric time instead?
