## Overview

7-
In October 2023 [@bnoordhuis] and [@saghul] decided to fork the [QuickJS] project with
8-
the aim of reigniting it. They reached out to the original authors ([@bellard] and [@chqrlie])
9-
about their intentions.
5+
QuickJS is a small and embeddable JavaScript engine. It aims to support the latest
6+
[ECMAScript] specification.

This project is a _fork_ of the [original QuickJS project] by Fabrice Bellard and Charlie Gordon, after it went dormant, with the intent of reigniting its development.

As of December 2023 the initial goal was somewhat accomplished. [@bellard] resumed working on
12-
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
15-
and combining the efforts. While that may take a while, since both projects diverged in certain
16-
areas, there is willingness to go in this direction from both sides.
17+
[@bnoordhuis], [@saghul], and many more [contributors].
