Re: [Bug-gnupedia] Peace in the world (was: Content Format)

I second Hector's words -- there is no war between Nupedia and "gnupedia".
In my opinion, there will not be separate *anything* as quickly as we can make
it happen.

I will say something even stronger than this:
> So please, don't make a war, Nupedia guys are going to help us and
> we are going to help them.

Within one month, or hopefully within ONE WEEK, there will no longer be
any such thing as 'Nupedia guys' and there will be no "us" and "them".
There will be ONE project.

This is the only rational way to proceed, because there is ONE goal here.

We could divide if there was any difference in goals or philosophy, but
there is NOT.

As I have been saying, there will not be "two equal projects" because there
will not be two of anything, if I can help it.

The only reason I can see for anyone wanting to fork the project _in any way_
is some misunderstanding of Nupedia or else pure ego.
