+We have retired the initial release of Snowflake and working on open sourcing
+the next version based on
+[Twitter-server](https://twitter.github.io/twitter-server/), in a form that can
+run anywhere without requiring Twitter's own infrastructure services.
+
+The initial version, released in 2010, was based on Apache Thrift and it
+predated [Finagle](https://twitter.github.io/twitter-server/), our building
+block for RPC services at Twitter.  The Snowflake we're using internally is a
+full rewrite and heavily relies on existing infrastructure at Twitter to run.
+We cannot commit to a date but we're doing our best to add necessary features to
+make Snowflake fit for many environments outside of Twitter.
+
+Source code is still in the repository and is reachable from
+[snowflake-2010](https://github.com/twitter/snowflake/releases/tag/snowflake-2010)
+tag.
+
+We won't be accepting pull requests or responding to issues for the retired
+release.
