@jjhelmus

Could you please give a short status on the project?

It seems there is at least some interest to enhance and improve pyfive.

It would be great if there would be a way forward for pyfive.

pyfive is on the wanted list as h5netcdf backend quite a while and it looks like it has most features already in or in pending PR.

I would happily join a team of maintainers if one will be established.

I have let this project idle for too long, sorry about that. I no longer work with HDF5 files often so have little need for this library, it no longer is an itch I need to scratch.

I'd be happy to add additional maintainers who would be willing to triage bugs, review and merge PR and prepare releases. @kmuehlbauer I've invited you as a collaborator on this repository.

@jjhelmus Thanks Jonathan, I'll have a look on the current issues and pull requests in the next days.

@bmaranville @woutdenolf Are you still in the works with HDF5? It would be great if you could join the team on pyfive. It looks like you are much more into the depths of HDF5 format.

I am indeed still working with HDF5 files regularly... I would be happy to help where I can.
