Nope, after the discussion I'm afraid that little more happened for implementing dimension scales. > It seems that PyTables not only doesn't understand the dimension scales, > it can't access their data at all.

I've fixed this in trunk: http://www.pytables.org/trac/changeset/2996 Now a try to recognize the dataset using heuristics is made before issuing the warning and mapping to UnImplemented. Hopefully, this fix should be enough to let users to access to dimension scales datasets.
