        OK, you can use SVN to check out a current version of the SWMR code 
from this URL:

http://svn.hdfgroup.uiuc.edu/hdf5/branches/revise_chunks/

        The main feature currently enabled is that when the "latest" version of 
the file format is used and a dataset is extended, the writer can do this 
without coordination with the reader (as long as they share a POSIX compatible 
file system - which NFS is _not_).  Take a look at the "swmr_writer.c" and 
"swmr_reader.c" code in the test subdirectory for how to enable and leverage 
this behavior.  Eventually, all metadata modifications will be supported for 
SWMR access, not just extending datasets.

        Quincey
