Woah, woah, woah. So you're suggesting that England and America reunite? Hahaha. No, you never asked for that, but it's some comparison.
In short, not a chance in the universe.

Nightwish is not Femshep. Femshep's fork is just wind for now, just wishful thinking. While nightwish's is very existent. Perhaps even more than Wedge since at least the source code is available.
I couldn't work with Nightwish unless he learned to write stricter code. But I admire his consistency. After a month an a half he only took a few days off, like me. Who can sustain that kind of involvement for a long time?
As for Fem, if it's who I think, the fork is going to stay wishful thinking or at best, a beautiful new theme.
SMF. Why exactly would we work with their developers? They no longer have developers. They haven't had ANY activity in two months. Why work with them? The future is in the forks. Wedge and Miranda at the forefront.Posted: September 14th, 2011, 07:37 AM
Btw my name is not Pete, so thumbs up for your reading commitment on this forum. It's not like I posted 7000 times on it eh. Next time make sure you know the guys at least a bit before you ask them to work for the betterment of the world (for free of course.)
if different people and ideas went into it
It's just that I have been a follower of SMF for over 4 years now and I have always thought it could be better. Now that you and Arantor are making it better, I thought why can't both scripts be better. I'm not saying Wedge could be better (because of course I don't know) but it could be superior script if different people and ideas went into it (doesn't necessarily have to be the SMF team).
Listen, I didn't mean to piss you off. It's just that I have been a follower of SMF for over 4 years now and I have always thought it could be better.

I appreciate the work you guys are doing that's why I visit almost everyday because I wanna see Wedge succeed. I'd love to help if I could but I don't know much about coding which is why I post ideas for features sometimes.
Just keep up the good work because I know it will be a beauty and I'm patiently waiting.
So I've read around here and been here since the almost beginning (noisen). I have seen and understand the not so friendly relationship with this project's devs and SMF. However, I really think if everybody worked hard together (SMF, Wedge, and Femshep[1]) that you guys can create the ultimate forum software that will blow competitors (free and paid) out of the water.
1. Who I think is Nightwish on here and is creating another fork.
I have a feeling that the SMF team will eventually invite you to join their developer team, consider the lack of team thereof. Is that something you'd do?
You don't seem to put much emphasis on your individuality (e.g. no name for your fork, no credit to yourself AFAIK...), is this because you'd rather work on the official codebase?
What would you do if they took your fork and reused it as SMF 2.1, for instance?
