Derivation: When you start with something and make changes specific to
me. The end result is a derived work. In the derived work, the
maintainer doesn't look to the original for all improvements, but
rather, makes their own changes on top of this state
.
Upstream: The place where the developers of software live, where they
take bugs on their software and publish source code.
