Hi,

As many of you probably know, the author of Ueberzug, seebye has decided to stop maintaining Ueberzug because of various reasons that I won't go in to here. You're free to read that bit for yourself.

Until there is a maintained fork of Ueberzug, I will stop any development for vifmimg and lfimg as I don't want to maintain anything that relies on projects that no longer receives updates.

I hope that everyone here understands the situation and I just want to thank each and every one of you who contributed.

Not a fork but a drop in replacement.

I think the author was pretty clear about their reasons and intentions and I think the reasons were good.
