This page provides links to various transitory HDF5 documentation, such as snapshots of the current development state of the HDF5 documentation for upcoming releases of the library and samples of the work in progress toward a new HDF5 Users' Guide . These documents do not necessarily correspond to any current public release. Pages below this level may move or go away in seemingly arbitrary fashion.
