Tweaked some wording after #143
README.md
Outdated
| ### Why was this fork created? | ||
|
|
||
| The original Bats repository is no longer maintained and write access to it could not be obtained. This fork allowed ongoing maintenance and forward progress for Bats. | ||
| There was an initial [call for maintainers][call-maintain] for the original Bats repository, but write access to it could not be obtained. As the main repository appeared inactive, this fork allowed ongoing maintenance and forward progress for Bats. |

Thanks for this. I didn't realize the call-maintain link wasn't in this section.
I like the general wording. The only thing is that I think people browsing on GitHub might conflate the code repository with the GitHub repository as a whole, so they might get the opposite perception that the GitHub repo is inactive (which is not true of course, there are a lot of PRs and discussion).
Also: Do you think it's worth noting the timespan? I tend to lean towards being too detailed so feel free to disregard if you don't think that's necessary.

Meh. with both the link to the original call for maintainers and the link to the issue documenting the fork, those interested can derive the time allowed.
But I agree with the repo phrasing. will tweak a bit more.

Clarifications look good 👍 |
Tweaked some wording after #143
I had a few concerns with the original wording, now addressed.
This PR should be squash-merged once approved.
