*Sigh*. You didn't. Since 'we' (the newsgroup, exclusive me, since I didn't
post at all) told you this. Most certainly Joe D. and Frank did.
Ah, and 'we' (the group, including me, since I read it as well) understood
pretty well what has been said. So you didn't pay attention.

Oh - a code fork is a pretty well understood term in the open (and
not so open) source world.
At a time, the Kermit Project got permission to use the WatTCP code.
They (essentially Joe Doupnik) continued to enhance and develop it
on their own. Where's the problem ?
