The right to fork is good but actually excercising it is bad for many reasons not the least of which is the people forking can easily disguise where the orginal came from... for example Linux's early use of BSD's protocol stack with out giving much credit... there are other issues that are covered in more detail at <a href="http://www.miai-siw.org/" title="miai-siw.org">http://www.miai-siw.org/</a miai-siw.org> and <a href="http://www.softdevelcoop.org/o.openMailingList.htm" title="softdevelcoop.org">http://www.softdevelcoop.org/o.openMailingList.ht<nobr>m<wbr></nobr> </a softdevelcoop.org> They tend to be subtle but serious so a little bit of digging (especially on the second url might be needed)
