===============================================================
Announcing C-Blosc 2.0.0-beta.1
Announcing C-Blosc 2.0.0-beta.2
A simple, compressed and fast data store library for C
===============================================================

What is new?
============

This is the first beta version, so the API has been declared frozen from now on. To avoid name collisions with existing C-Blosc 1.x deployments, the library is officially called `blosc2` and the main header is `blosc2.h`.

Also, this version offers a frame object so that data can be stored sequentially both in-memory and on-disk. Last but not least, blosc2 supports the optimized implementations of LZ4 in Intel's IPP for improved compression ratios and speed.
This is the second beta version, and the frame format has been much improved and [documented (yay!)](https://github.com/Blosc/c-blosc2/blob/master/README_FRAME_FORMAT.rst). Also, the metalayer-related functions are now updating the super-chunk instead of the frame.

In principle, C-Blosc2 should be backward compatible with C-Blosc, so you can start using it right away and slowly begin to use its new functionality, like the new filters, prefilters, super-chunks and frames. See docs in:
