Who's Behind LiME?

LiME is an open-source project developed by and for real-time systems researchers and, ultimately, engineers. It is currently maintained by the Real-Time Systems Group at the Max Planck Institute for Software Systems (MPI-SWS) in Kaiserslautern and Saarbrücken, Germany.

While the project originated within MPI-SWS, our goals for LiME go beyond what any single group can sustain over the long term. We envision LiME growing into a true community-driven effort and are actively seeking collaborators at all levels of expertise.
