===========================================
Support for the HDMF Specification Language
===========================================

The HDMF API provides nearly full support for all features of the `HDMF Specification Language`_
version 3.0.0, except for the following:

1. Attributes containing multiple references (see `#833`_)
2. Certain text and integer values for quantity (see `#423`_, `#531`_)
3. Datasets that do not have a data_type_inc/data_type_def and contain either a reference dtype or a compound dtype (see `#737`_)
4. Passing dataset dtype and shape from parent data type to child data type (see `#320`_)
