## About

### Shaarli community fork

This friendly fork is maintained by the Shaarli community at <https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli>

This is a community fork of the original [Shaarli](https://github.com/sebsauvage/Shaarli/) project by [Sébastien Sauvage](http://sebsauvage.net/).

The original project is currently unmaintained, and the developer [has informed us](https://github.com/sebsauvage/Shaarli/issues/191) that he would have no time to work on Shaarli in the near future.

The Shaarli community has carried on the work to provide [many
patches](https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli/compare/sebsauvage:master...master) for
[bug fixes and enhancements](https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli/issues?q=is%3Aclosed+)
in this repository, and will keep maintaining the project for the foreseeable
future, while keeping Shaarli simple and efficient.
