While I agree with Doug that we assume good faith and hope for the best, I personally think we should help them (what we're doing now) but also make sure we DO NOT set a precedent. We could probably learn from this situation and document in our governance what the TC expects when companies have a fork and need to contribute back at some point. We all know StarlingX isn't alone and I'm pretty sure there are a lot of deployments out there who are in the same situation. I guess my point is, yes for helping StarlingX now but no for incubating future forks if that happens. Like Graham, I think these methods shouldn't be what we encourage in our position. -- Emilien Macchi
