+About 5 years ago, at CloudNativeCon + KubeCon North American '19 in San Diego, the idea for Artifact Hub began. At the time there were a few cloud native artifacts and they were discovered via general search or individual targeted sites like the now defunct Helm Hub. In 2020 the development on Artifact Hub began and it eventually moved to a point where we filed for Incubation.
+
+We are happy to announce that Artifact Hub is now a CNCF Incubating Project.
