the possibility of your project being divided in two would be of

convey any sort of apprehension that you might have about such a split
to the group that could prevent it. After all - lots of you are putting
a great effort into GNU software basically gratis...
I and many other GCC developers read a number of lists; this is not the
only place we exist. Thus, the fact that this is something that we
might wish to discuss is not congruent with it being something that we
want to discuss _here_.
What you are describing are reasons why we might want to discuss this in
some forum elsewhere. They are not reasons why it should be considered
on-topic in this particular list.
