You have a responsibility to your own reputation. When you publish some source, are you trying to help other developers, or are you just making a public online backup? If the former, then do so; if the latter, then just be clear what you're doing. Put "I'm just dumping this on the 'net" in the README, and people can take it for what it's worth (nothing, probably).
