Update readme.md ?

[jypeter]

@doutriaux1 and @chaosphere2112 I have just visited the https://github.com/UV-CDAT/uvcdat page to have a look at the instructions at the bottom of the page and I got confused quickly because they are a bit obsolete. This page says that the latest version is 2.4.1! Which is right and false at the same time...

Could you write something here to say that the installation went from a full python install that went up to 2.4.1 and then moved to a conda-based install and that the latest version is 2.8? It's a bit disturbing, because at the same time, if I'm not mistaken, the current uv-cdat wiki is hosted in UV-CDAT/uvcdat but it relates more to UC-CDAT/cdms, UV-CDAT/vcs, etc

Maybe you should list all the relevant parts of UV-CDAT that are outside of uvcdat, and make clear which issues should go to these packages and which issues should still go to uvcdat

Also maybe you should have the non-existing vcs/cdms/etc wiki point back to the uvcdat wiki

Of course, there should also be a link from this readme.md to http://uvcdat.llnl.gov/ and maybe some explaination about what is on the UV-CDAT web and what is on the uvcdat wiki

I'm not sure I'm very clear, but it should be easier for guys like you who have the big picture :-) I also understand it's not easy to deal with information that's located in several places. But you have to make it as easy as possible for the users to jump seamlessly from one place to the other. I end up with LOTS of open web pages and it does not feel completely right
