Sure it can be forked. I can probably fork it, just go to github or wherever it is hosted and press "fork" button. The problem is maintaining velocity and features with Chrome. Google can add new protocols and mandatory new features daily and nobody can keep with them or propose alternatives. Today you fork Chrome to some new branch Nickel. Tomorrow Google releases some new QUIC v100500 without which half of the internet doesn't work and forces to adopt this new feature as a standard. What do Nickel devs do then? Clone Chrome again? This will be a mirror of the current situation, where every Chrome clone has exact same browser inside. Reimplement this QUIC v100500? Push alternative? Won't happen. |
