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.

Best regards,

Armando
