On the contrary, from the quote it seems he has crystal clear understanding of copyright and public domain—not too surprisingly since his adherence to these principles dates at least fifteen years back (http://hcsoftware.sourceforge.net/jason-rohrer/freeDistribution.html http://hcsoftware.sourceforge.net/jason-rohrer/freeDistribut...) He's appealing to ethics, not the law. He says right there that his objection is to the naming of forks. If that looks to you like violation of the public domain promise, you must think the name constitutes the body of the work. I'm not sure what to make of the DMCA filings, though, since those should obviously rely on copyright in the first place. From his twitter, it seems he's also convinced by now that the trademark law provides perfect solution for this problem, and has apparently filed an application for a trademark on the OHOL name.
