New library announcement: HebiRobotics/MFL

[nedtwigg]

MatFileRW contributor Florian Enner has created a new Java library for reading and writing MAT files, you can find it at HebiRobotics/MFL.

MatFileRW will continue to accept bug reports and PRs. However, we recommend starting new projects with HebiRobotics/MFL because it:

• has every testcase from MatFileRW and more
• has a cleaner and more modern codebase
• supports concurrent compression and decompression
• is designed for interoperability with native-Java matrix manipulation
• has optional EJML integration

Besides the effort to learn the new API, there are no downsides and quite a few upsides. Migrating a project is a big job, so we will continue to accept bug reports and PR's for MatFileRW to support those who don't choose to migrate.
