[tor-talk] "Tor Browsers" on SourceForge

Hi,

i've been looking that on SourceForge there are several projects that
distribute the "Tor Browser" and explicitly use the name "Tor Browser":

Tor Browser Portable
http://sourceforge.net/projects/torbrowserportable/

Tor Browser
http://sourceforge.net/projects/torbrowser/

The 2nd one is not even Tor Browser.

Given that there could be sketchy reasons to distribute Tor Browser
unofficially and that Tor it's a copyright of Tor Project, shouldn't the
Tor Project ask to SourceForge to act to:

a) Or Remove those project

b) Or ask to change name and remove any occurrence of "Tor" in the name
of the projects, title, sub descriptions that may lead to misleading
interpretation that "this is tor browser"

?
