HDF5 version 2.0.0 currently under development

> **Heads Up: HDF5 Drops Autotools March 10th**
>
> The day has arrived: the day we've all been dreading—or eagerly anticipating, depending on your perspective. Yes, we're switching to CMake-only builds in HDF5. Prepare yourselves.
>
> The [PR stripping all autotools](https://github.com/HDFGroup/hdf5/pull/5308) will go into the "develop" branch on **March 10, 2025**. HDF5 2.0, scheduled for release in Fall 2025, will *only* support the CMake build system.
>
>If you’d like to learn more about this decision, check out this blog post from November 2022: [Can we remove the autotools?](https://www.hdfgroup.org/2022/11/14/can-we-remove-the-autotools/) And the [HDF5 2.0 planning wiki](https://github.com/HDFGroup/hdf5/wiki/HDF5-2.0-Planning#drop-support-for-the-autotools). If you use autotools for your builds, now is a great time to update your workflows to CMake.
