This is what I called as forking. Forking does not necessarily mean code copying. Generally, the CppDB look and feel is very similar.
I dont' think your definition of "fork" fits the commonly-accepted understanding of the word. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fork_(software_development) for an example. I suggest you find a different term for whatever it is that you mean, to avoid misunderstandings.
I agree and I admit it wasn't very fortunate to use the word fork to describe some sort of fragmentation of ideas, efforts and opportunities. Best regards, -- Mateusz Loskot, http://mateusz.loskot.net Charter Member of OSGeo, http://osgeo.org Member of ACCU, http://accu.org
