there are a .....lot of forks already, no putting the genie back in the bottle for this one, I'd imagine.

Forks are easy for Github to shut down simultaneously. What you really want is to upload the code as a new repo (ideally a different name from the original one). But it shouldn't be too hard in practice to detect uploading the same codebase as one that's taken down if that's desired.

but once forked people will have local copies, that can be put up onto other sites, if GH take them down.
