This is the official "top level web page".

Oops, the download instructions are completely outdated.

I will update the instructions asap!

A short instruction + some hints and remarks:

Anonymous download with user name "svn" is not possible! This is a 
consequence 
of LBNL's need to count the downloads. You have to use the user 
name "l_bethel". I suppose you forgot your password ;-), I will send you a 
new one in another email ...

For anonymous download we should setup the agreed procedure:
As soon as a new version is available some guy runs
    svn checkout https://svn.psi.ch/H5Part/H5Part/tags/H5Part-<version>
    cd H5Part-<version>
    ./autogen.sh
    ./configure
    make dist-bzip2
and copies the created tar-file to the H5Part download directory at LBNL. I 
can do this provided that I get access to this directory.

The current version of H5Part is 1.3.1.

I need to know the URL to the H5Part download directory for the update of the 
web page.

I will (most likely) attend the AFS workshop in Stanford from May 8.-11. - a 
good opportunity to visit LBNL for 1 or 2 days and to discuss/implement some 
open points.
