“All major functionality must be present” — does the codebase have to be Manifold's? Have to be forked (derived) from Manifold's? Does a compressed diff between that codebase and the Manifold master have to be below some fraction of the compressed size of Manifold's codebase?

@JamesEdingtonAdministrato Doesn't have to be directly descended from Manifold. But it's hard to imagine someone would converge on all the same major features if starting from scratch.

Salem ran a clone of Manifold last year for their contest. Does that count?

@ThisProfileDoesntExist No, the manifold team set it up and hosted it for them

More critical than ever:

not for 400 mana... i'll just seed the liquidity for now

Did anybody try yet?

@marketwise A few people have tried and given up. I'm told their infrastructure is a bit o f a haphazard mess, so it's not well suited to this at the moment.
