this is still a draft

Foreword

What started as a personal, private project back in early 2015, was released as an article by Martin Brinkmann at gHacks in August 2015. I never expected much to happen beyond the first article, but it did. The response from the ghacks community was great. I continued to keep it up-to-date and expand it. And along with suggestions from ghacks commentators, it has evolved and grown. But six monthly updates are problematic. So two years since I started, here we are at github, with all the obvious benefits that brings. I am excited about finally being here (it was talked about for a year), and looking forward to taking this to the next level with you all.

🔸 What does this aim to do?

🔸 What else?

🔸 What's in the pipeline?

🔸 How do I use this?

Everyone, experts included, need to read at least the Wiki page on Implementation, as it contains important information relating to a few default settings we use. The rest of the Wiki can be helpful as well.

🔸 Acknowledgments

It's impossible to acknowledge everyone - literally thousands of sources, references and suggestions. That said...
