yep. but the data I'll currently need to wrestle with is Level-5.

this one ?
github.com/sbinet/go-hdf5 ?
:)
HDF5 is a very VERY large (C) library and reimplementing it in pure-Go
would be:
a) a huge task
b) very interesting
c) hair pulling
d) all of the above

the Level-5 (and Level-4) data file format(s) aren't that complicated.
I guess I'll bite the bullet and write the package.
