Huh, -next ?
This is fork of python-diamond/Diamond. Unfortunately development of Diamond is stuck, let's face it - project is abandoned. Diamond-next is an effort to continue the work. Besides the name of the package, under the hood, from user perspective, everything will be the same.

History
Diamond was a brightcove project and hosted at BrightcoveOS. However none of the active developers are brightcove employees and so the development has moved to python-diamond. We request that any new pull requests and issues be cut against python-diamond. We will keep BrightcoveOS updated and still honor issues/tickets cut on that repo. Unfortunately development of Diamond is stuck, let's face it - project is abandoned. Diamond-next is an effort to continue development.
