Heiko,
Back in January the pull request to add these two coordinates was
merged into the CF 1.7 document xml files:
https://github.com/cf-convention/cf-convention.github.io/pull/33
But those changes didn't show up in the CF 1.7 web page:
http://cfconventions.org/Data/cf-conventions/cf-conventions-1.7/build/cf-conventions.html
which still says: "Version 1.7.2 DRAFT, 28 March, 2014"
The problem I think is that there is no automated process to create
the html pages once the Pull Requests have been accepted. I guess
this has traditionally been done manually, folllowing the procedure
described here:
https://github.com/cf-convention/cf-convention.github.io/wiki/How-to-build-the-document-from-the-Docbook-sources
It would be great if we automated this process using Travis-CI.
