History
==========================
MythBox was forked from xbmc-mythtv (http://xbmc-mythtv.sourceforge.net)
and largely rewritten to bring MythTV protocol support up to date,
add new features, and make MythTV a pleasure to use in XBMC.
Many thanks to all the developers whose time and effort went into the original
xbmc-mythtv project!
