No tech ping?

No. There was an OSS ping.

a fork of Linux between the two licenses appears likely.

I view it as merely possible--not likely.

Torvalds and Stallman may very well agree on GPL3 in the end, this could just be some huge publicity stunt to try to gain one or the other some credibility. But it's starting to look like they are very much at odds over this, a dead giveaway was Torvald's appearance on Jokelaw that ended up with the site maintainer threatening to toss him for vulgar language and her final comment to him being that her mother uses Windows LOL.
