Oh completely agreed - but how often do you see a fork before any
code/developement is actually contributed (or, an earnest attempt to
contribute)? While forking is in the spirit, forking outright "just
because" doesn't seem like it's truly in the spirit. (*)

I'm comparing this to more well known forks, like X.org or the more
recent Mambo/Joomla. Political issues aside, the forks followed a more
traditional path of people at least trying first to make it work. The
vTiger fork strikes more more as a hit-and-run on someone else's codebase.

My $0.02 US. :)
-te

(*) again I'm not a proponent of either side, but from a long time open
source contributor and advocate point of view the vTiger moves feels sketchy
