The README.md states the following:

Automatic merging. Automerge is a so-called Conflict-Free Replicated Data Type (CRDT),
which allows concurrent changes on different devices to be merged automatically without
requiring any central server. It is based on academic research on JSON CRDTs, but the
details of the algorithm in Automerge are different from the JSON CRDT paper, and we are
planning to publish more detail about it in the future.

Is there are timeline as to when this information will be available? It would be nice to have this information for people trying to implement this in other languages.

Thanks.
