Lewis Rosenthal Forking an Open Source Project: Why, When, and How
This session will discuss the reasoning behind splitting a project and taking the code in a different direction from the main development team. Sometimes, the issues are technological in nature, at other times, philosophical or even political. In no event, however, should the decision to fork be taken lightly or without great care. Afterward, providing clarity on the differences between the fork and the original project, without promoting disharmony, presents challenges of its own.

Lewis Rosenthal DOS and WinOS/2 on modern systems with ArcaOS
