I also see it that way but I also understand Fons. To fork without
telling the author is allowed by license but anyway: it is also allowed
by law to step into a room without answering, if someone says "good
morning". License is one thing, manners are another and both should be
observed.

Looks like they do not ;-)

@Fons: if you do not like the way in that your software is forked, maybe
ask them to use a different name?

just my 2c
