DMOTE pull discussion about dactyl-keyboard HOT 2 OPEN

Hi Viktor. Wow, that's so cool. If I had 3D printer access, it'd be fun to try some of your unique designs. A declarative syntax is a great idea, too.

I probably won't consider a PR.

Repositories for keyboard designs and other physical objects are odd. There's no easy way to verify designs or changes. I'm also not building more variations (my existing keyboard is "good enough"). So, basically, this repo is stagnant.

What I should do is put a message like the following at the top of the README in this repository:

This repository is not being updated. Other forks are available with updates and improvements. See the following:

• Viktor Eikman--Includes a declarative configuration layer in YAML. This allows a wide range of customizations and interesting keyboard designs. This fixes a number of issues with the current dactyl-manuform design.

... list other forks ...

Plus, you deserve all the credit for your improvements and interesting ideas.

Thank you Tom, that decision is perfectly understandable. The list you propose, of notable third-generation projects, would surely be useful to your fans. I suggest you include these two, as well as myself:

• Ibnu Daru Aji – a web application!
• Joshua Shreve – Python (cadquery) instead of Clojure.

They’re quite impressive!
