Exactly, 

I wish I could have put it so succinctly.

every contribution you make to your fork without offering it to other
forks makes it difficult for them to catch up later.
Edgar made SqueakLightII over a year ago (?) and we havent even been

As far as I am concerned Andreas has just announced another fork of
squeak, and my head is spinning with what we have already
