I'd call it... forking? :) It would be nice courtesy for RH to notify maintainers when this happens, but by no means a requirement. They certainly do themselves a disservice however by pissing off contributors through this sort of behavior (where at least they don't even reply to queries -- I know someone has had a ticket open in bz assigned to whoever took their EPEL package and it's never been touched once). A little PR would go a long way I think. Probably preaching to the crowd here...
