      Because Russia is under sanctions. They would have to take everything into there own hands which means they would basically have a separate project.

        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.
