   I struggled a lot with if I should in any way lead a charge for a fork, for governance.

   I had just not had my contract renewed. It would seem petty and disruptive if I encouraged a fork.

   So I bit my tongue, for the past 3 weeks.

   I didn't want to rock the boat, I didn't want to be antagonistic. I didn't want to be "that person".

   Eugen could manage this himself, he said so, I was willing to give him a chance.

     I have never had so many people tell me to "Just fork it" as I had today. They told me my contributions weren't valued, because I hadn't contributed code.

     What they all had in common? Seemingly Cis-het men, who I'd never heard about before, or seen in any of the discussions about the project. And none of them acted like they knew I had ever contributed to the project either.

     But what spurred me on was the #ForkOff attitude.
