Unless it's not immediately obvious-- there are no OpenBSD developers associated with this project, past or present. This isn't some splitting of existing communities.
There was nothing "hard" about this fork, it's funny how a few GNU aficionados think that deleting a few freely redistributeable firmware files constitutes significant "new code" contributions.
It's in the same vein as projects like "libertybsd" or "libreboot"-- misleading people into thinking they are anything but a agenda driven project, onboarding like-minded and inexperienced new users, meanwhile offloading most (if not all) the support/technical burden on other communities.
- ramshorns 7y agoI take "hard fork" to mean they aren't going to rebase on future versions of OpenBSD.
- notaplumber 7y agoI'm sure they won't, if history tells us anything. It'll forever remain "liberated".
- zamadatix 7y agoSo what do you take hard fork to mean then?
- notaplumber 7y agoWhat it means. It's glib remark implying there was any difficulty.
