We need to expand this to talk about both Foursquare and kepler.gl. Probably best to work on this in a Google Doc before a PR, copy the current text into a Google Doc and we can collaborate on that.

I've created a "README.md" section within rebranding RFC doc.

This is not a simple "rebranding" because it's not possible to rename the plugin. Instead, we'll publish a new plugin under a new name, and then update the older one to point to the new one.
We'll have to preserve both plugins in this repo, so that we could release them independently while we're actively working on
keplerbut still also making smaller changes toUnfoldedso that it points tokepler, and until we've given it enough time that we can removeUnfoldedfrom the QGIS registry at some later point in time.Plan of execution

Unfoldedany more, this final manual release should be the last we thing we do on it, and from that point on sole effort will go intokepler. If, for whatever reason, we need to make some more changes toUnfolded, we can still make updates, and package it and publish it manually, without making any changes that affectkepler.Keeping the publishing process separate (one manual (for
Unfolded) and one through automatic CI (forkepler)) means less complexity in dealing with multiple configurations for CI.TODO
