+## A short history of Python-EFL
+
+Python-EFL was begun in 2007 by work of Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri and others
while working for Nokia on the software project Canola Media Player. The
language bindings were initially developed for the individual components of
EFL, until merged together in 2013.
+
+He was later joined by Ulisses Furquim Freire da Silva, who together formed
the company ProFUSION embedded systems where the developement continued and a
new software project called Editje was created, which uses the Python bindings
for most of its functionality.
+
+Python-EFL gained many more developers, also at this time an independent
application project called EpyMC was created by Davide Andreoli.
+
+In the beginning of the year 2011 the developement was practically halted. In
2012 Davide Andreoli picked up the developement and Kai Huuhko (@kuuko) joined
him shortly after. Work at this time was focused on finishing the Python
bindings for Elementary, the toolkit library.
+
+In 2013 the individual components were merged together and a new documentation
system was implemented, enabling easier access for the end-user developers.
+
+Currently (as in 2022) the bindings are still actively maintained and improved
by Davide Andreoli, in his effort to bring to python a powerfull and attractive
UI toolkit.
