When Firefox/phoenix was created, it was essentially by two people, Dave Hyatt and Blake Ross, isn't?

Firefox was based on the existing Mozilla codebase maintained by dozens or hundreds of engineers. Likewise, as long as Firefox is actively maintained by Mozilla it only takes 1-2 people to maintain a small fork. But if Mozilla goes out of business and Firefox becomes completely unmaintained all of the forks will also die.
