+# stregion
+
+**DO NOT USE THIS PACKAGE IN YOUR PROJECT**
+
+This is a frozen fork of `pyregion`. This repository's codebase is permanently
+stuck in 2013. This repository will never be updated and therefore is not
+useful except where required by old projects under https://github.com/spacetelescope
+that rely on any patches made here long ago.
+
+We have rebranded this software as `stregion` for the sole purpose of
+avoiding conflicts with the existing `pyregion` package on PyPI.
+
+
+If you stumbled upon this package by mistake, go ahead and check out one of the
+following projects instead:

+
+------------------
