+Our second project to adopt was [flock](https://github.com/gofrs/flock) (formerly known as `github.com/theckman/go-flock`). This project was donated to us from [@theckman](https://github.com/theckman) and we hapily adopted it because of its use in some projects across the community.
+
+Overall, the project seems stable and complete. There aren't a tons and tons of users, but some important projects. ([Import list](https://godoc.org/github.com/theckman/go-flock?importers))
