    Dear NeXus Users Community,
    <p>Last NFDI NeXus Workshop was a great opportunity to meet the
      community and learn from the experience of other scientists and
      institutions.</p>
    <p>Here at ALBA we are working on the integration of NeXus files in
      our data analysis workflows.</p>
    <p>In this scope we are interested on investigating alternatives to
      hdf5 as NeXus file format, in terms of slice read/write
      performance, read-write-many capabilities and convenient reading.</p>
    <p>Would the community be open to decoupling the data format (NeXus)
      from the file format (HDF5)?<br>
      Is there already any effort in the community in this direction?<br>
      Is anyone else also interested?</p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>Best regards,</p>
    <p>Gabriel<br>
    </p>
    <p><br>
