I can agree with almost everything else written in this post, but get off
the attitude train people. It is not necessary to be nice all the time.
There are well established reason for the attitude. When others start behaving
better they will get treated more nicely (like not defaming others).

And you are right. this is really not that big of a deal. Others are blowing
it out of proportion to reality. Nothing illegal, immoral, or unethical is
happening by the existence of a fork. In fact, a fork does not exist yet, only
the same packages as on the Yahoo group, minus the GPL violations.
It would have been very easy to do the right thing from the start. But
that is the responsibility of others.
