Porch is a key component of the Nephio architecture. It was originally developed in the
[kpt](https://github.com/kptdev/kpt) project. When kpt was donated to the [CNCF](https://www.cncf.io/projects/kpt/) it
was decided that Porch would not be part of the kpt project and the code was donated to Nephio.

Porch is now maintained by the Nephio community and it is a stable part of the Nephio R3 architecture. However there is
an active discucssion about the future of the project. It is possible that the current Porch component will be replaced

Porch is maintained by the Nephio community and is a core part of the Nephio architecture. Porch will evolve with Nephio and
its architecture and implementation will be updated to meet the functional and non-functional requirements on it
and on Nephio as a whole.
