Re: DPDG V2.0 - Section 3.1.1 - Comment 2
The DPDG editing team indicates that this document was written before many of the details on optimizing HDF5 were known. The document does have some statements about cloud optimization of HDF5 for metadata aggregation in Section 3.3.3 titled "NetCDF-4 and HDF5 in the Cloud" but the coverage here is rather generic. More details should be included in the next version of the document.
