README.md Outdated
**Current Release**: [go-cose alpha 1][release-alpha-1]

The project was *initially* forked from the upstream [mozilla/go-cose][mozilla-go-cose] project, however it was agreed between the veraison and mozilla maintainers to retire mozilla/go-cose project and focus on [veraison/go-cose][veraison-go-cose] as the active project.

Nothing wrong in introducing with a brief background of the initial state (earlier) and then thanking the original contributors (in present) and then moving on. In my view it flows well.

But that was correct when the action was in progress, like I have agreed to hand over XYZ to you.

But once the handover happened that should also go to past tense, like It was agreed between UK and EU to part ways back in 2019.

@SteveLasker & @thomas-fossati Could you please approve the PR. Seems to be in pretty good shape.

We need to make a release now once this is merged.
