So, do we want to do anything about this? Looking at the site, I don't think it's going to do any harm, especially considering the shoddy feel of the place. I thought maybe Jimbo would want to contact the webmaster and ask him what his intentions are.
I noticed that major sections are missing so it is obviously a fork from way back.
I think it emphasizes that what makes Wikipedia work is the active community of contributors, not the database or the software. Since they are a clone that forked from Wikipedia, we know they had a somewhat viable starting point from the standpoint of working software and some initial data.
Perhaps we should take care to maintain and grow our community of contributors while we attempt to improve the software and database.
I must say that I found the dramatic improvement in Wikipedia since the fork date very encouraging!
