So which part of all those ecosystems are you claiming Europe could not maintain? Before you answer remember that Ubuntu is European, SUSE and openSUSE are European, Manjaro is European, most Arch developers are European, LibreOffice is European, KDE is European, GPG is European... I could go on, but, with all that shared expertise, are you sure that Europe does not possess the know-how to recreate and maintain all and every part of the Linux ecosystem?

Edit: When I say "European" I mean "started in and mainly run by people based in Europe".

europe is not on the american government's shit list and you mentioned forking; so you're as well aware as i am that removing the russians from linux maintainer's contributors list will not impact american allies in europe.

your question is clearly posed in bad faith and i suspect that its intention is something other than discussing what the trajectory of the open source world will be like in the future when the american government has control over it and starts expanding that control onto other open sourced projects.
