## Overview
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In October 2023 [@bnoordhuis] and [@saghul] decided to fork the [QuickJS] project with
|
|
|
|
the aim of reigniting it. They reached out to the original authors ([@bellard] and [@chqrlie])
|
|
|
|
about their intentions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As of December 2023 the initial goal was somewhat accomplished. [@bellard] resumed working on
|
|
|
|
the project and both parties have been pulling patches from each other since.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As of early 2024 both projects agree the proper path forward involves merging both projects
|
|
|
|
and combining the efforts. While that may take a while, since both projects diverged in certain
|
|
|
|
areas, there is willingness to go in this direction from both sides.
