- benrbray 5y agoSomething intersting about MathOverflow is that it started as an independent site, with the creators eventually agreeing to make it part of the StackExchange network. I believe part of the agreement allows the owners of MathOverflow to break off from the main site again, in the event of a major disagreement between MO and SE. I'm sure they're glad to have an escape hatch given the recent aquisition!
