   After some people reached out I realized some stuff got lost, so to clear it up:
   What I am currently doing with the help of @Laurelai and @PaulFerence will not make us the defacto leaders of whatever #ForkOffTogether turns into. All we are doing is trying to make something out of the survey for everyone who showed interest.

     We are using a discord Conversation with only us 3.
     We are trying to get it right, by taking community over code. I realize it doesn’t feel transparent at this time, but it’s difficult to talk about what we’re doing, when it will sound like we’re deciding what this will turn into.

     Ironically, seemed like we were making all the decisions without transparency anyways.

     What I can say is, we are trying to prepare a meeting, so we can lay the foundations together for what we want to happen, We the community who want to #ForkOffTogether.

     Tomorrow another survey is going out, to help us make a very rough drafts of some documents that you all will get to give feedback on before that first meeting, and after.

     It’s a long and slow process, and we’re basing it on Swedish Formalities when it comes to creating not-for-organisations, as that is what I have experience with. However, at the meeting the people who are there, or who have sent in feedback, get a say in what happens from there, what kind of organization you will build together, and what types of meetings you will hold.

     All we are doing right now, is creating a suggested way, by showing you with one first meeting.

     This is why there’s no website, no one-pager explaining what #ForkOffTogether is, because I don’t know yet, but primarily because it is not my place to say.

     I have not made a discord server because it is not my decision.

     I have not up and forked a code base, because it is not my decision

     Additional info that had gotten lost:
     The survey was written with help of the following people:
     @sargoth
     @Laurelai
     @noiob
     @noelle

     And @PaulFerence , who was also the person who reached out to me asking if I was interested in forking.

     That’s why I made the survey, because One person reached out, and showed that they would be interested in forking.

     TL;DR #ForkOffTogether Update #3

     @Laurelai , @PaulFerence and I, will not become the defacto leaders, we're putting measurements in place to avoid this.

     We are only trying to use the survey to invite everyone to a meeting, to start up an organization of the meeting's choice.

     Another survey, together with more information, is coming out tomorrow to help us rough draft one of the documents we will suggest at the meeting.

     Everyone will get a vote.
