The problem is: The applications I'm dealing with in the Debian Med team (currently fastqc but more to come) are simply using the libsis-jhdf5-java interface. I would rather ask the upstream authors to switch to those alternative interfaces. Unfortunately I have basically no Java knowledge and I have only a rudimentary idea what HDF5 might be. That makes me a perfectly incompetent person to give good reasons against something that might have been a well thought decision. Bernd, could you possibly elaborate on the differences between libsis-jhdf5-java and the other implementations and do you see any chances to may be join forces with the other projects? Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
