+Very Sleepy CS
+--------------
+
+This project is a fork of [Very Sleepy](http://www.codersnotes.com/sleepy), a polling Windows CPU profiler with a wxWidgets-based GUI. It is based on Very Sleepy version 0.82, and adds several improvements.
+
+### Download
+
+You can download an installer on [files.thecybershadow.net](http://files.thecybershadow.net/verysleepy).
+
+### History
+
+##### Version 0.83 (2013-08-22):
+
+* Numerous user interface performance, responsiveness and usability improvements
+* Allow specifying additional symbol search paths
+* Add Back and Forward menu items and hotkeys for function list navigation
+* Improve overall performance
+* Add late symbol loading by saving a minidump during profiling
+* Install 32-bit version alongside 64-bit version
+* Contributed by [Richard Munn](https://github.com/benjymous):
+    * Added a time limit option to the interface
+    * Added function highlighting and filtering
+
+##### [First release](http://blog.thecybershadow.net/2013/01/11/very-sleepy-fork/) (2013-01-11):
+
+* Fix several issues with the `/r` command-line option
+* Various UI improvements
+* Don't completely abort due to one failed `GetThreadContext` call (fixes "`Error: ProfilerExcep: GetThreadContext failed.`" errors by ignoring the occasional seemingly-harmless error condition)
+
+### Motivation
+
+This project exists because all of my recent attempts to contact Richard Mitton, Very Sleepy's maintainer, have failed.
+The patches I have sent him in March 2012 have not been published,
+and my requests to upload the project's source code on a source forge (e.g. GitHub) have similarly fallen on deaf ears.
+
+Several others have started their own forks of the project as well.
+Although I hope that I will be able to reach Richard eventually,
+for now I'd like for there to be one place for further project development,
+so that orphaned forks (which often remain unnoticed and succumb to bitrot) could be avoided.
+
