I've snipped the rest of your email since you make it quite plain you
haven't bothered to read what you're complaining about.

Since I'm such a ridiculously nice person, I'll reiterate for you:
  * step one: project presents rough proposal along with request to
              use org.freedesktop namespace, no formal interface spec
              nor code need be present
  * step two: project presents interface spec and asks for that to be
              approved

Between steps one and two, no-one else can use that namespace but you.
Seem fair?

Cheers,
Daniel
