 # README - Fast Light Tool Kit (FLTK) Version 1.4.0
 
-## VERY IMPORTANT TECHNICAL NOTICE
-
-** This FLTK repository is still a mirror of our Subversion repository. **
-
-  Technically this means:
-
-  * we may replace it with another one if this appears to be necessary
-  * we don't accept pull requests (yet) for this repository
-
-
-### Technical background
-
-  Our main source code repository is currently (as of Sep 18, 2018) our
-  subversion repository at http://www.fltk.org/software.php#SVN .
-
-  We are in the transition to convert the subversion repository to Git.
-  Until this is done we have established Git mirrors of our Subversion
-  repository at these two sites:
-
-  * https://github.com/fltk/fltk
-  * https://gitlab.com/fltk/fltk
-
-  You may use these Git repositories for testing purposes, but please
-  don't rely on their structure (branches) and particularly not on the
-  commit (and file/blob) hashes (SHA1's).
-
-  Committing to these Git repositories is not possible since they are
-  mirrors of the original Subversion repository.
-
-  This will hopefully be changed soon...
-
+** This FLTK repository is now our official source code repository. **
