You omitted the second half of the paragraph Bjoern wrote: | Wenn man sich allerdings an einem eigenen | Brand, einer eigenen Release und einer eigenen inkompatiblen Codeline | versucht, dann ist ist das Ganze in erster Linie ein Fork -- die | Gruendung einer Foundation ist dann nebensaechliches Beiwerk. that roughly translates to "However, if you try an own brand, a separate release and a separate incompatible code line, then the whole thing is primarily a fork -- the foundation of a foundation then is incidental accessory."
