*Etherpump* is a fork of [*etherdump*](https://gitlab.constantvzw.org/aa/etherdump), a command line tool written by [Michael Murtaugh](http://automatist.org/) that converts etherpad pages to files. This fork is made out of curiosities in the tool, a wish to study it and shared sparks of enthusiasm to use it in different situations within Varia.
Etherpump is a stretched version of etherdump. It introduces features to the initial tool that diffuse actions of *dumping* into *pumping*. Instead of dumping all pads by default, etherpump will be the place for us to write tools, that allow one to use etherpads to edit and curate content for publishing.
