Hello Simile-Widgets watchers and Exhibit users,

For the past few years Zepheira has been leading the development of Exhibit
3.  Now, to simplify and encourage broader community contribution to the
Exhibit codebase, we are establishing a new home for Exhibit on Github:

   https://github.com/simile-widgets/exhibit

This new official repository -- managed by the Simile Widgets community --
will serve as the hub for all changes and improvements to the Exhibit
codebase. MIT will continue contributing code related to their ongoing
research with information management, and Zepheira will continue hardening
the code.

We plan to follow standard Github practice: the official repository will
act as a central hub for bug reporting and code integration, rather than
development. Contributions to the codebase should be performed in a fork of
the project and contributed via a pull request. For a good tutorial on
using Pull Requests, see
https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests

On behalf of the Simile community, we want to thank Zepheira for the work
they've put in to Exhibit 3 these past years --- especially Eric Miller and
Ryan Lee. We also thank the Library of Congress for providing the funding
and sharing the vision of the program.

We're looking forward to continued community involvement in the Exhibit
codebase, and if you visit the new home, you'll find several bug fixes and
improvements have already been integrated since "moving in"!
Regards,
Ted Benson
