# Why the fork?
Originally, the ARM porting was supposed to be merged into Intel's own Hyperscan, and 2 Pull
Requests had been made to the project for this reason ([1], [2]). Instead of a review on technical
issues, Intel outright rejected any multi-architecture support for Hyperscan, for now and the
forseeable future and we were forced to fork. However, we are firm open source believers and
in the end this can only be a good thing, as it gives us the opportunity to make further
modifications and optimizations in the code, which could not be done otherwise.
Originally, the ARM porting was supposed to be merged into Intel's own Hyperscan, and 2
Pull Requests had been made to the project for this reason ([1], [2]). Unfortunately, the
PRs were rejected for now and the forseeable future, thus we have created Vectorscan for
our own multi-architectural and opensource collaborative needs.
