Don't be silly.

But if you are going to start producing public releases and
encouraging people to use them, perhaps some demonstrated
consideration for the public project's processes and opportunity to

I'm all for firewalls between public volunteer labor and publicly
released corporate projects, but in this case, I think they took the
firewall concept just a little bit too far.
