HDF4 4.0 (February 2025)
HDF4 3.1 is scheduled to be released at the end of May, 2025.
HDF4 4.0 (TBD, maybe 2026)
* We will drop support for FORTRAN 77 and move to modern Fortran (2003 or 2008)
* HDF4 includes an ancient netCDF 2.3.2 API along with HDF4-built ncdump and ncgen tools. Support for these will be dropped in 4.4.0. netCDF APIs and tools should be obtained from Unidata.

* (maybe) libdf and libmfhdf will be merged into a single libhdf4 library, Fortran will be built as a separate library

The goal of the HDF 4.4.0 release is to address long-standing deficiencies
The goal of the HDF4 4.0 release is to address long-standing deficiencies
and bring HDF4 in line with HDF5's build practices. This should allow HDF4
to work better with modern systems and compilers and be more easily
maintained.
