There are two things I know about branches; the always introduce bugs and=20
inconsistencies. Plus the developer-resources are devided in different=20
groups.

Again my normal advice: If at all possible avoid branching/forking!

by yourself. No feedback from your peers.
you make a commitment to do a project that has soo big a chance of failing =
no=20
translator or icon-creator will work on this.=20
