+This is fork of pyzeroconf, Multicast DNS Service Discovery for Python,
+originally by Paul Scott-Murphy (https://github.com/paulsm/pyzeroconf),
+modified by William McBrine (https://github.com/wmcbrine/pyzeroconf).
+
+The original William McBrine's fork note:
+
+   This fork is used in all of my TiVo-related projects: HME for Python (and
+   therefore HME/VLC), Network Remote, Remote Proxy, and pyTivo.  Before this,
+   I was tracking the changes for zeroconf.py in three separate repos.
+   I figured I should have an authoritative source.
+
+Although I make changes based on my experience with TiVos, I expect that
+they're generally applicable. This version also includes patches found on the
+now-defunct (?) Launchpad repo of pyzeroconf, and elsewhere around the net --
+not always well-documented, sorry.  Compatible with:
+
+   - Bonjour
+   - Avahi
+
+Compared to some other Zeroconf/Bonjour/Avahi Python packages, python-zeroconf:
+
+   - isn't tied to Bonjour or Avahi
+   - doesn't use D-Bus
+   - doesn't force you to use particular event loop or Twisted
+   - is pip-installable
+   - has PyPI distribution
