<div class="">I’m not in a position to state what the official
policy is - I don’t think it was officially discussed as part of
the last NIAC agenda, but I was sure I heard the idea of a ‘NAPI
Light’ mentioned. My impression at the time was that this had
been agreed earlier, perhaps in one of the telco meetings, but I
may have misunderstood what was said. It wouldn’t be the first
time.</div>

In the last NIAC meeting I attended (organized by Diamond), it was
said that the NeXus API would be in "bug fix" mode. By other hand,
new guidelines are being added, the NAPI is being updated and
trainings on using it seem to be organized. If you have the time and
man-power to devote to those tasks, it is fine. Given the fact we
are not using the same tools to write the files, I would consider
more important to devote the effort to the validation tools,
particularly those related to application definitions.<br>
