A national fork? In Russia?
Sometimes the jokes write themselves.
It would be "interesting" at best.
Because Russia is under sanctions. They would have to take everything into there own hands which means they would basically have a separate project.
Oh sure we agree then, was just minigun full auto posting. It's going to be completely separate from the financial system that has most open source development under its thumb, I find that exciting.
That's what a fork is. Happens all the time.
It really doesn't happen all the time. It is pretty rare for a fork to be successful especially if most of the development is still happening on the original project. I don't see Russia having much success with this.
