I can't tell why you're being this petty. The man explicitly asked for people to respect his wish of the project being public but not advertised. If a quick search leads anyone to find it, why not leave it at that? The ones who are interested will find it. All you did was to be be contrarian for no good reason. And to answer parent's question with my own impression: the post serves to tell people like me (that tangentially knew the language is in development) that work is being done, and if any of us has more than a cursory interest, they can get in touch to help. It also serves to tell people that are not immediately interested in helping that spreading the word about the project is not encouraged. I can't think of why there needs to be more of a "point" than this.
