No, not fork. Fork is a kind of side effect. It is a matter of engagement and attractiveness (and cooperation/ coordination). FUD, paranoia and the like are surface phenomena if something is going wrong under the hood. Part of each successful project is to take care to keep its developers onboard. Something went wrong here during the Sun / Oracle merger.
