I have been biting my tongue a lot this week and almost posted the same thing 
earlier on Sunday. It strikes me that DoDi wants to do some interesting, 
experimental and radical changes and refactoring to the codebase. A fork is the 
only real option. This removes the burden from the core developers, makes DoDi 
able to prove his theories without constantly arguing with the core developers 
and stops the arguments on this list. As I see it, Florian et al are less 
likely than ever to accept patches from him. He does not want to conform to 
their coding style and is rocking the status quo. DoDi sees Florian et al as a 
giant road block in his attempts to move FPC forwards as an academic exercise. 
A fork will solve this issue completely.
