+Known Forks/Derivative Versions
+-------------------------------
+The last "old upstream" version of WiiUse was 0.12. A number of projects
+forked or embedded that version or earlier, making their own improvements.
+A (probably incomplete) list follows, split between those whose improvements
+are completed integrated into this new mainline version, and those whose
+improvements have not yet been ported/merged into this version. An eventual
+goal is to integrate all appropriate improvements (under the GPL 3+) back
+into this mainline community-maintained "master fork" - contributions are
+greatly appreciated.
 
+### Forks that have been fully integrated: ###
+- [TU Delft's version with Balance Board support](http://graphics.tudelft.nl/Projects/WiiBalanceBoard)
+
+	- Added balance board support only.
+
+	- Integrated into mainline 0.13.
+
+### Forks not yet fully integrated: ###
+- [libogc/WPAD/DevKitPro](http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Libogc)
+
+	- Started before the disappearance of the original upstream
+
+	- Focused on Wiimote use with Wii hardware
+
+	- Functions renamed, copyright statements removed

+		alternate MotionPlus merge from WiiC by Jan Ciger.
+
+- [DolphinEmu](http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/source/checkout)
