+I am considering deletion and deprecation of this repository. I am not an up-to-date maintainer of almost anything in here anymore. I haven't had this repo enabled in quite a while and I'm sure at least the python versions are out of date. I would be surprised to hear that there are users other than myself but I have no desire to delete this with no notice. Please email me at knotteye@waldn.net if you use this repository.
