The fork died.
that is the point. goal or no goal.
- rowanG077 3y agoIt obviously didn't die. It got merged into the original project. That is a great end of a fork.
- colesantiago 3y agoSo it didn't survive then. Isn't that the whole point of what I said: > Forks of a large project seldom survive.
- rowanG077 3y agoBut it did survive. I can't view rejoining the forked from repository as dying.
- colesantiago 3y agoWho is still using the io.js fork? Nobody? That is my point.
- rowanG077 3y agoEveryone who is using node.js is using it... Anyway you and I have a different idea of what it means to die. The identifier io.js is no longer in use. But everything that it actually is, is now node.js.
- insanitybit 3y agook but that's a terrible point
- colesantiago 3y agoterrible or not my point still stands, and it is a truer point now that nobody is using the fork that was io.js.
