__Why the fork?__
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We felt that the original [Shout](https://github.com/erming/shout) project
|
|
|
|
|
"stagnated" a little because its original author wanted it to remain his pet
|
|
|
|
|
project (which is a perfectly fine thing!).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A bunch of people, excited about doing things a bit differently than the upstream
|
|
|
|
|
project forked it under a new name: “The Lounge”.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This fork aims to be community managed, meaning that the decisions are taken
|
|
|
|
|
in a collegial fashion, and that a bunch of maintainers should be able to make
|
|
|
|
|
the review process quicker and more streamlined.
