Hi,

So I've been investigating using Tumbler (thumbnailing daemon) in a
project I'm working on.  OBS Trunk had Tumbler 0.1.1 -- very old -- so I
naturally grabbed upstream git and started patching it to suit our
needs, with the aim of updating OBS Trunk to the latest release this
week before the feature freeze.

Then I find out that Tumbler 0.1.12 was just submitted to Trunk:Testing
by Maitrey Mishra from Nokia.  This confused me greatly because the
upstream (XFCE-hosted) Tumbler is currently version 0.1.6 (released
January 16th 2011).

Does MeeGo have a policy on hostile forks that don't change name but
continue the versioning as if they were their own?  I'd expect the
policy to be "don't do that" but apparently not, because this isn't the
first instance that comes to mind.
