If neither krzysztof not Fred plan to continue development, why can’t it continue under the same name? (Keeping attribution of course!) I’d argue multiple libraries is more confusing to the user especially when they all provide roughly the same functionality but the main one is now very out of date. That, plus the fact that urging people to use [declare -lib cyclone] now requires urging people to do a batch find/replace for “cyclone” when, again, the functionality is the same.

i therefore ask both fred and alexandre to change the name of their library, so that they cannot be confused with both the original cyclone library and with each other: neither of the forks is an (or /the/) "official" fork. for what it is worth, git makes it easy to incorporate changes between forks (using pull requests, cherry picking,...) even if the names are different!
