Regardless of intention, the inability of the author to adequately explain why a fork was necessary, apart from some hand wavy arguments that some other solutions were inadequate, does not inspire confidence. I find it very hard to be generous with the author given the way that he paints himself as a visionary while casually dismissing the work and perspective of the people who actually did the real visionary work of seeding the technologies that he has hitched his wagon to.
