I love how "15 Years of Forking" is right next to "There is no Spoon" on the HN homepage right now :D

Did you read the same article as me? The word is singularly used in the context of how do you earn money as a project, i.e. sustain the effort. It's a bit of a leap to imply this is impure unless they made some contract stating the opposite or are doing something dark.
