Mamute QA

Status of Project

This project is a fork from the original Mamute code, with the goal to use Spring Boot as the web framework in order to continue the project. The database layer was converted to Liquibase, but the controllers and the views have not been converted.

As I have limited time to work on this fork of Mamute, you should consider this project dormant. It can be continued in the future if interest generates around it.
