Research notes on the VLESS / Xray-core project — who maintains it, what the fork history actually was, and what the community knows vs. what it speculates. Companion to the deployment guide on the wiki.
Who actually maintains the Xray-core project? A look at the overlap between V2Ray's Victoria Raymond, Xray's RPRX, and the still-active mmmray — coding-style signals, timezone clusters, project-graph overlap, and where the evidence runs out.
Why was V2Ray forked into Xray-core in 2021? The license argument, the attribution fight, the AGPL question, and what's left of the original team five years later.
