No, because once again, I raised the topic of a fork because I do not feel that association with GNU or FSF benefits the GCC project. I did not say "we have to cancel them because I don't like their politics" (as it happens, I do like their politics, which is why I've spent two decades writing copyleft code for GCC, I just think they have failed to evolve and are sadly irrelevant today).
