-The "Typesafe Config" library is even in 2023 an important foundation to how Akka and other JVM libraries manage configuration. While we at [Lightbend](https://lightbend.com) understand that there are things here and there that could be built out and improved, but we take stability over fixes here. We will make sure "Typesafe Config" keeps up with JVM versions, but will not invest in any other changes.

 We are thankful for all the work [@havocp](https://github.com/havocp) has put into creating the library initially and supporting its users over many more years, even after leaving Lightbend.
