+:warning: These examples are for legacy DTypes :warning:
+========================================================
+
+NumPy has new-style DTypes with additional features and improved consistency.  As of NumPy 1.24, these still require use of unstable/experimental API and are not quite production ready. However, projects planning in the mid- or long-term are recommended to use the new API, and we are actively working on finalizing them.
+
+Because of this, no more improvements are expectd here and this repository is now archived.
+
+Examples for new style DTypes can be found in https://github.com/numpy/user-dtypes
