I agree .. this is basically what Rocket is doing is response to the commercial support of Docker. I haven't seen what tangible value io.js or Rocket are going to add. It's basically 'we aren't a corporation' and that doesn't add value by itself. If they want to look at a good example of a clone that has added value they should look at Mono/Xamarin.

What? That's what came away with? Even shykes didn't accuse them of that.
Frequent releases add value,
Faster integration of v8 updates add value.
It's not as simple as you state.
Fedor kind of started the whole thing, though. http://www.infoworld.com/article/2855057/application-develop...
I'm not following your argument. They stated "many core contributors" not "all core contributors". Obviously some people will only work with one project or the other.
Could you clarify?

No, because it's perfectly clear. But perhaps I can restate: indutny's behaving in bad faith, which should be perfectly obvious to anyone. Max Ogden (the original and unofficial author of the opinion posted above) would like to believe there is no antagonism here.
If this were just some third party, perhaps this wouldn't be significant. But indutny's on node core, the technical committee, the advisory board meetings, and is the original forker of io.js. His actions are central here.
If he needs sign-off or whatever, it's not like he doesn't have friends in all the forks. I'm pre-emptively calling bullshit on anyone who invokes the Joyent bogeyman here; tons of PRs land without their involvement. What's the difference here.
That's pretty antagonistic IYAM.
