As someone who's had their patches and issues in this tracker before, not
really being able to keep an eye on them - I wanted to take this
opportunity to ask if there's been (further) consideration and movement
towards using github for both public issue tracking (possibly integrate
into your internal system, if you're using one of the more flexible
trackers) and for more open / easier tracking of the project.  I wouldn't
call it successful necessarily, but I can point out a company of similar
position has done this: PrismTech's OpenSplice DDS [
https://github.com/PrismTech/opensplice ], although I think the way they
have done it can serve as an example of how not to do it :-).

Developer wise, no new stuff from me lately unfortunately. Still trying to
both make new libraries on/for HDF5 and find the projects that need HDF5.
I'm still keeping my eye on the ML though. That and waiting for some H5LT
changes to allow other languages to do refcounting, see this for more
in-depth explanation:  https://github.com/h5py/h5py/issues/552
