## Differences from `necolas/normalize.css`
93+
94+
Nicolas Gallagher and I started writing normalize.css together. I named and
95+
created the normalize.css repository with the help of Paul Irish and Ben Alman.
96+
I transferred the repository to Necolas, who turned it into a “household” CSS
97+
library.
98+
99+
Later, I resumed authorship of normalize.css with Luciano Battagliero. Together,
100+
we tagged, deprecated, and removed “opinionated” styles — styles developers
101+
often prefer but which do not fix bugs or “normalize” browser differences.
102+
103+
Later, Necolas resumed authorship and the issue of whether to include or omit
104+
the opinionated styles forced us to split.
105+
106+
I continue working on the normalize.css project, currently under the “csstools”
107+
tag. I hope one day our differences are resolved and the projects are one again.
