Ah, the Golgafrincham solution (see [[Places_in_The_Hitchhiker's_Guide_to_the_Galaxy#Golgafrincham]]). Sort of, anyway. The pious hope of a fork in which those who really, really hate currrent dispute resolution processes are invited to work on a WP clone, licensed in the same way as the original, and so to take their dramatics somewhere else. Without the cryogenics, though. This of course is what Citizendium should have been, but they ducked cloning the material and editing it down. I think this is just a science-fiction or desert-island fable, but I could be wrong. It could be "Lord of the Flies" or a "brave new world" - who knows? I think DG is astutely putting this forward as a reply to people with no contructive suggestions as to how to move forward from where we are now.
