I recently put a readme, not even the code, up for a github project. I just never got around to tidying up the code.

It's an extremely niche, very fast ARM SIMD implementation of a particular feature descriptor (ORB).

Anyway, someone, somehow, found this otherwise unpublicised github repo. Fast forward, they were willing to license the code, so I figured the easiest way to let them evaluate it was to release under GPL.

This lead to a few more people reaching out, and now I'm about to quit my job. All this happened in a week.
