Note the only viable fork will be on the current hosting (which isn't FSF controlled) with the downside of eventually losing the gcc.gnu.org DNS and thus a need to "switch" to a sourceware.org name. Given there would be actual work involved on the FSF side to keep a "fork" with the exact same setup (and thus transparent with existing setups) I don't see it keeping live (but I see somebody populating savannah with sources). Richard. Richard.
