Release ## Known Issue -* Parallel operation using `mpich 4.2.0` (the default on `Ubuntu 24.04`) results in 'unexpected results' when running `nc_test4/run_par_test.sh`. This can be fixed by removing `mpich` and associated libraries and development packages and installing `mpich 4.2.2` by hand, or by using `openmpi` provided via `apt`. +> Parallel operation using `mpich 4.2.0` (the default on `Ubuntu 24.04`) results in 'unexpected results' when running `nc_test4/run_par_test.sh`.

These are turned on by default currently but will be turned off eventually. Developers are encouraged to move away from the `FillValue` macro and replace it with the new `NC_FillValue` macro. See [Github #2858](https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/2858) for more information. + + + * Provide better documentation for the .rc file mechanism and API. See [Github #2956](https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/2956) for more information. * Convert NCZarr V2 to store all netcdf-4 specific info as attributes. This improves interoperability with other Zarr implementations by no longer using non-standard keys. The price to be paid is that lazy attribute reading cannot be supported. See [Github #2836](https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/2936) for more information. * Cleanup the option code for NETCDF_ENABLE_SET_LOG_LEVEL\[_FUNC\] See [Github #2931](https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/2931) for more information.
