[[User:Electrum|Electrum]] thank you for adding the link this weekend.
[[User:Electrum|Electrum]], [[User:Mattsfuller|Mattsfuller]], [[User:Findepi|Findepi]] Instead of calling something a fork how about a more explicit description of the current state of things? I think we can avoid using controversial language while better communicating the state of things.
Currently this line in history reads
<blockquote>In January 2019, the Presto Software Foundation was announced. The foundation is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the advancement of the Presto open source distributed SQL query engine[4][5].</blockquote>
What if it was updated to read something like.
<blockquote>In January 2019, the Presto Software Foundation was announced. The foundation is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the advancement of the Presto open source distributed SQL query engine[4][5]. Development of Presto continues independently with PrestoDB owned by Facebook and PrestoSQL owned by the Presto Software Foundation with some cross pollination of code.</blockquote>
There are two key points I want to add to the article. That development of the two projects continues independently, and that there is some cross pollination of commits (as mentioned by [[User:Mattsfuller|Mattsfuller]]). I think it's also worth clarifying who owns PrestoDB, and who owns PrestoSQL so that it's understood what the links in info box are about.
It might even be worth rethinking the links in the info box so they they somehow communicate what they are without requiring people to read the article.
WDYT?
