+**WARNING: THIS PROJECT IS IN MAINTENANCE MODE, DUE TO INSUFFICIENT MAINTAINER RESOURCES**
+
+It works fine, but will generally no longer be improved.
+
+We are currently only accepting changes which:
+
+* keep this compiling with the latest versions of Rust or its dependencies.
+* have minimal review requirements, such as documentation changes (so not totally new APIs).
