If Zed goes wrong, can we just fork it? If yes, I’d like to use it.

It’s open source, so theoretically, yes.

The CLA stuff made me suspicious but probably you’re right.

If they’re using a CLA, that would only be used if you want them to merge your code into their codebase. If you’re running a fork, that shouldn’t be a problem.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
