+>
+> MRTK v3+
+>
+> New versions of the Mixed Reality Toolkit will be released by the Mixed Reality Toolkit
+> organization using a repository at https://github.com/MixedRealityToolkit/MixedRealityToolkit-Unity.
+> Visit this repository for the latest version of the MRTK project, and when
+> creating new issues or discussion topics for MRTK version 3 or later.
+>
+> MRTK v2 (Legacy)
+>
+> The old MRTK2 repository, https://github.com/microsoft/MixedRealityToolkit-Unity,
+> is remaining under Microsoft's management and will stay on version 2. Microsoft is committed to the next version of MRTK, and recommends applications
+> move to MRTK version 3 or later. However, Microsoft will continue to support and address critical MRTK2 issues, until MRTK2 is deprecated. Please open
+> MRTK2 issues and discussion topics using the old repository.
