I haven't tested compression yet."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/Unidata/netcdf4-python/issues/comments/90989957","html_url":"https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf4-python/issues/390#issuecomment-90989957","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/Unidata/netcdf4-python/issues/390","id":90989957,"user":{"login":"jswhit","id":579593,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/579593?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/jswhit","html_url":"https://github.com/jswhit","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jswhit/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jswhit/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jswhit/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jswhit/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jswhit/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jswhit/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jswhit/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jswhit/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/jswhit/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-04-08T18:01:49Z","updated_at":"2015-04-08T18:01:49Z","body":"does h5py support \"orthogonal indexing\" with booleans and integers?"}}
