I don't understand why the term "fork" didn't appear in Atwood's article. It's the simplest solution to his problem.

- lutorm 17y agoIt did appear.
- michael_dorfman 17y agoOnly in a quoted passage, and Atwood didn't engage with that portion of the quote.
- ra88it 17y agoI suspect the word "fork" was deliberately excluded from the article because it would be less provocative. Atwood appears to be more interested in starting controversy than actually solving problems. [edit: Ok, so it does appear in the quote taken from a mailing list, but Atwood does not explicitly address the idea.]
