Description

I'm am having people talk about switching from hdf5 to rust based reimplementations of hdf5 and for hdf5's dependencies. It might be good to have a statement in the hdf5 code base about the hdf5 maintainers' view of these projects. I know of these, but do not know anything about them beyond their existence.
