+ <p>Many years ago, the <a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Skolelinux
+/ Debian Edu project</a> initiated a student project to create a tool
+for making stop motion movies. The proposal came from a teacher
+needing such tool on Skolelinux. The project, called "stopmotion",
+was manned by two extraordinary students and won a school award and a
+national aware with this great project. The project was initiated and
+mentored by Herman Robak, and manned by the students Bjørn Erik Nilsen
+and Fredrik Berg Kjølstad. They got in touch with people at Aardman
+Animation studio and received feedback on how professionals would like
+such stopmotion tool to work, and the end result was and is used by
+animators around the globe. But as is usual after studying, both got
+jobs and went elsewhere, and did not have time to properly tend to the
+project, and it has been lingering for a few years now. Until last
+year...</p>
+
+<p>Last year some of the users got together with Herman, and moved the
+project to Sourceforge and in effect restarted the project under a new
+name,
+<a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxstopmotion/">linuxstopmotion</a>.
+The name change was done to make it possible to find the project using
+Internet search engines (try to search for 'stopmotion' to see what I
+mean). I've been following
+<a href="https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linuxstopmotion-community">the
+mailing list</a> and the improvement already in place and planned for
+the future is encouraging. If you want to make stop motion movies.
+Check it out. :)</p>
