Are you nuts? Do you have any idea how much work a quality fork would take? Absolutely not. My intent is to give folks a place to store their local customizations that they have written to make their life easier. If it becomes active enough, I expect some code (or at least the ideas) will make it upstream. I've also had enough laptop drives fail that I want my work to be archived on a public server. I've also tried posting attachments here when people requested code, and sourceforge rejects them. I discussed my intentions with Dieter off-list before posting here a month or so ago. His position, which I completely understand and support, is that unless I am willing to take responsibility for auditing and testing every contribution, he will not link to it from the official site. I cannot do that right now so it will be independent. I'm going to use git as the repository, so you have to be pretty geeky to even be able to take advantage of it. This will provide some level of quality control (and maybe a quiet repository!). I'm also going to publish some strongly recommended guidelines, but beyond that it will be a open bazaar. m ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
