so somebody with zero programming skills and therefore zero experience with coding agents deemed AI assisted code such a big problem that they performatively forked a project at an arbitrary point. And they want to maybe maintain it while the whole issue started when the original maintainer said the project is too big to be maintained without assistance.

what are we doing here?

Worth keeping in mind that I'm not a programmer, I cannot write code yet but I can understand some of it when I read it and how it's structured. I've wanted to learn for a long time, so this could potentially be a way to start learning if I ever have time.

I am a programmer but I wouldn't trust myself I could invest enough time and knowledge into such a project. This is basically the announcement of someone making a fork. People make thousand forks a day, it is important what comes out it. Making a fork and saying maybe I will work on this project in the future after I learned how to code is not worthy of being news in my opinion.
