Hi Andrey,

Here is my take on filter ids

You should use a different filter id.

That said, you have two options in so doing. Use a non-registered id with value 
below 32000 that *only*you* care about.

Or, try to get a new registered filter id.

Do you anticipate many other people/organizations using your filter and sharing 
data that was filtered with it?

If so, yes, it would be very important to go the "registered filter id" route. 
Otherwise, its less important.

Subject: [Hdf-forum] Alt. compression filter implementation

Hello!

I'd like to use "bitshuffle" preconditioning filter for HDF5 datasets.
Luckily, the page
https://support.hdfgroup.org/services/contributions.html#filters
points me to Filter ID 32008:
https://github.com/kiyo-masui/bitshuffle
However, there are technical limitations that restrict me from usage of
above plugin. I'm going to implement something simpler, probably not
even *fully* compatible on cd_nelmts/cd_values.
In this case, should I still use ID 32008 for my filter?
Or, I'd rather contact
https://support.hdfgroup.org/services/support.html
and try register another ID?

Best wishes,
Andrey Paramonov
