## I am Using GitHub Under Protest
This project is currently hosted on my [personal
forge](https://git.blob42.xyz/sp4ke/colmap) and mirrored on GitHub. This is not
ideal; GitHub is a proprietary, trade-secret system that is not Free and Open
Souce Software (FOSS). I am deeply concerned about using a proprietary system
like GitHub. If you want to contribute I encourage you to do so through the
orignal repo and avoid Github. I urge you to read about the [Give up
GitHub](https://GiveUpGitHub.org) campaign from [the Software Freedom
Conservancy](https://sfconservancy.org) to understand some of the reasons why
GitHub is not a good place to host FOSS projects.
Any use of this project's code by GitHub Copilot, past or present, is done
without our permission. We do not consent to GitHub's use of this project's
code in Copilot.
