Right... but that does not mean there will be inherently nothing wrong with
the rest of the test, since having access to these datasets is a prerequisite.
What would we do then if we eventually make changes to the dap loader that have
some sort of bugs, but don't notice them because the opendap test server is
down as it is now and the tests falsely pass? I get that it is annoying to have
constant build failures that aren't our fault, but at the very least I can is
that the failures at least force you to investigate the logs. Conversely I fear
that this would lead to us being less likely to check the build logs in the
scenario I mention above since if you don't, you'd have know way of knowing
that those tests were actually skipped.
