Sorry if I lack the information related to why there is now a fork. But
does this mean that setuptools is becoming a dead project - as in no more
fixes/commits? Or, is there going to be two separate tools - setuptools
and distribute/setuptools2 - that will have ongoing releases?

That other people are doing something based on the code does not in any way change my plans... except that if the fork turns out to actually be useful, then I might stop even thinking about backward compatibility issues and write Something Completely Different instead.

For now, however, my plans for setuptools remain largely unchanged. They await only time and/or funding, as has been the case for some considerable time now.
