you never know... let it be, the perils of open sourcing your shit.

  Sure. Technically and legally, you could package that code up and sell it. The maintainer didn't just make a simple fork. He renamed it, bought a domain, all behind the owners back while he's on vacation. From an etiquette standpoint, I wouldn't want to work with a maintainer who just hijacks projects. Based on the behavior I've seen, I'm saddened to see this. This project's contributors are Chinese: https://github.com/gogits/gogs/graphs/contributors https://github.com/gogits/gogs/graphs/contributors. The gross majority of the commits come from a few people - the project has been around for years. And over a period of a few weeks, this happened, by an outsider. They are probably gfw'd and have difficulty finding a VPN.

    Usually quick and dirty, actually no most forks, don't go anywhere... because of the immense amount of effort needed. Once in a while forks become things like WordPress... but not too often.
