Hi Norman,

There's absolutely no way of preventing additional/auxiliary projects in the 
free software world, so there's no reason for you to feel guilty or for anyone 
else to lay a guilt trip on you. You made something a little different from 
existing software, and were nice enough to give it to the world.
