+Multiproxy Switch is no longer maintained
+======================
+
+I decided to stop maintaining Multiproxy Switch. There are two main reasons for this:
+* Existence of an alternative, superior [Multiproxy Switch fork](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/proxy-selector/).
+* Github's spontaneous [decision](https://github.com/blog/1302-goodbye-uploads) to end support for their downloads infrastructure. There was no warning of this transition period, and it breaks autoupdates for all Multiproxy Switch users. Prior warning could have allowed me to roll out a new version with an updated update URL.
+
+As such, the following information remains for historical purposes only

 Introduction:
 ----------------------
 Fork of [Multiproxy Switch 1.33](http://multiproxyswitch.blogspot.com/) because development there seems to have died.
