Dear Colleagues, An imgCIF file can be placed into an HDF5 file (via NeXus) and recovered accurately. Starting the trip the other way is a more complex journey because there is not yet an agreed statement of the representation of a PX experiment in NeXus. For example, the issue of the best handling of the nests of axes is still to be resolved. There is also the more general issue of how best to represent the entire tree structure of HDF5 (for NeXus) as relational tables (for CIF), but I expect that will fall out very naturally if we focus on the PX experiment. I would be very happy to participate in working out the details. If there is interest, I would suggest starting with the nests of axes.
