@dansup @GrahamDowns @loops I wouldn't want a desktop app. Web is preferred. I'm also mostly desktop first (aka "old").

@dansup don't get too excited. Most forks die almost immediately, once the anger or misunderstanding that triggered the fork blows over and the forkers realize that maintaining a large OSS project mostly sucks and it isn't really about fixing a few bugs or adding some whizbang feature. If you're actively maintaining and improving the project, the fork is unlikely to gain much steam. (But, I agree the right to fork is fundamental to open source, all other rights sort of spring from it.)

@dansup the thing about those offers is they're often the end of the project and the founder rarely really comes out all that well. I mean, in the cases I can think of, most got a pretty good salary for a couple years, and then left as the company/project withers into irrelevance under new leadership brought in by the investors. No big exit happens in the vast majority of cases, even though that's always the bait they use to get you on board.
