Forking a project and calling it something nearly identical (removing  
a dash) cannot help but generate confusion and is an example of  
hostile fork.

Here are some guidelines for forking, which seem sensible to me:

But none of these was followed in the case in question.

Don't bother to reply. I leave this group with a fair amount of  
bitterness and disappointment in the way one of your members has  
conducted himself. To those who seemed to understand my position along  
the way, I thank you for your support.
