A somewhat similar thing has happened with Plan9.

There are multiple “successor” projects, some basically single-person projects, others semi-official with legal structure, others larger groups of like-minded developers.

The are high levels of acrimony between the groups, and no accepted processes for evolving together.

Periodically, some naive passerby will suggest a common core repository, perhaps even using a popular technology, and they’ll get barbecued in the resulting flamefest. 

So it goes.
