Thanks Tim for winding-back the whole thread history. I&#39;m not a Github evangelist and I don&#39;t like the fold this thread is taking.<div>I have not prejudices and I&#39;m not get payed from Github for opening repos. I just thought if is during this time frame the most used social coding app to get things done, and considered that the existing fork of the Copenaghen guys, as well as osxmonad are STILL on Github, for me is the most reasonable choice. Stop!</div>
<div><br></div><div>As regards the website writing thing, again, I don&#39;t want to pass the idea I&#39;m the leader of something. I&#39;ve just kickstarted the whole thing like a community thing! Please get involved!</div>
<div>You don&#39;t like the idea of a new website? Fine! I&#39;ll stick with anything the community wants :)</div><div>I just thought that if we have a new website we also have an alternative, as who knows we like the new website more the the old? :)</div>
<div><br></div><div>To sum up, I think that Tim has exactly made my point, so the rest it&#39;s up to you. If you like the idea, please chime in.</div><div>Otherwise maybe we&#39;ll continue with our &quot;fork&quot; to see where it brings us, and the xmonad official repo will continue to be in darcs, exactly as is it now.</div>

But what I read out of Brandon’s mails is: It is not a different<br>
