<h2>History</h2>
<p>Max Ogden was developing Recline as the frontend data browser and editor his <a href="http://datacouch.com/">http://datacouch.com/</a> project. Meanwhile, Rufus Pollock and the <a href="http://ckan.org/">CKAN team</a> at the <a href="http://okfn.org/">Open Knowledge Foundation</a> had been working on a <a href="http://github.com/okfn/dataexplorer">Data Explorer</a> for use in <a href="http://thedatahub.org">the DataHub</a> and <a href="http://ckan.org/">CKAN software</a>.</p>
<p>When they met up, they realized that they were pretty much working on the same thing and so decided to join forces to produce the new Recline Data Explorer.</p>
<p>The new project forked off <a href="https://github.com/maxogden/recline">Max's original recline codebase</a> combining some portions of the <a href="http://github.com/okfn/dataexplorer">original Data Explorer</a>. However, it was rapidly rewritten from the ground up using Backbone.</p>
