 I'll say again that what they really need to do is retire. Disband the
 secret cabal and let the maintainership pass into the hands of people who
 actually have an interest in improving the product, without the trouble of
 forking.

 "Fork" implies two concurrent, "competing" streams of development; change
 of maintainership means only one. It's the difference between the VPs
 leaving to form their own company, and the board forcing the president to
 step down, to use quite a loose, inappropriate metaphor.
