Hi all

sorry for reply to wrong thread before and re-post now:

The section

could be more clear. I'm confused. Is this a working Corona App or is in
incompatible with the "official" one? If not, it's kind of not good news for
reproducible builds so this detail matters.
Also the first sentence is not sufficiently clear about whether the link is to
the upstream repo or to the fork repo.

I sort of get what this paragraph means I think ... Maybe this could be dumbed
down a bit,
especially as the in-depth links are there.
