Go for it. I bet you could do it in a week.

I'll fork it in about 30 seconds.

And neither of us will get any traction, because the QGIS team has a history and proven track record within the GIS community, and neither of us are attempting to solve a problem that community has.

You can clone anything in 15 minutes with AI. Just like you can start a child in 15 minutes.

The question is whether or not you are willing to support your creation for the next two decades.

but you can just fork the entire repo and continue development with AI yourself, why the need to rewrite it from 0?

a Rust rewite is silently being crafted somewhere, and TBH - myself really expected QGIS to get a total rewrite much sooner.

Dumb mafioso.
