The problem is that "fork" means two different things, and that some members seem to be interpreting fork in the sense of a project level fork - meaning creating a new community out of an existing project. Whereas the fork on github is really about raising pull requests Paul is mentioning. We sho

I would think it is almost ubiquitous now for developers to know that the easiest way for them to create a PR for instance is to fork the project (the source code if you like) on Github. It seems sensible to encourage the use of "Fork me on Github" as it substantially lowers the barrier of newcome
