In response to Paul's comment about C;

The impatient (at my place) ask for code fragments for reading and writing in C, python (using h5py and pytables), C# and fortran (in that order of priority)

I agree about having examples in matlab, IDL and Igor - we have these in LAMP (IDL) and the NIST SANS (Igor) applications for some years now, so they're not a issue. 

The patient have an elegant solution in java and (hopefully by year's end) C++, using the common data model :)
