I'll be interested to see how long the fork(s) last(s), and how soon the defectors return.

And it will be interesting to see what happens with the DRM removal tools.

Unless needless changes (needless in the sense that they are unrelated to ai support-code removal) are made to the external plugin framework in the fork, the DRM removal plugin should remain completely unaffected.

It has been ~2 weeks since the fork. I don't recall any posts about the fork actually being modified. So the defectors currently aren't stripping DRM?

What I meant was stand alone DRM removal tools will need to be made, or use commercial software, for defectors that don't want to support "calibre" at all.

There's been several commits to the fork remove the any ai support code, but there's been no release. So unless people are building their own versions of Calibre from the fork (no small feat) I doubt there's been any defectors yet.

I guess I don't know what you mean about needing standalone DRM removal tools. Calibre has no integral DRM removal capabilities. Never has. It is all done through add-on third-party plugins. Which would still work with the proposed fork of Calibre. Continuing to use them wouldn't be "supporting" calibre in any way.

Unless the fork is pre-built, I cannot see many using it.
