How would you word it to come across as being more helpful?

I want to disambiguate in case people google "push it" or have read me talking about it here or on twitter. I do not want people to hear about my Push-It and think that it is this project. While progress in features and popularity have been slow, I've been working on Push-It since march of last year and would like to maintain a clear distinction around an open-source project with that name. If you're not vigilant with any brand, you risk dilution and confusion.

While it is a little rude to name your project the same as another currently-active project, I did not think my original post stated or implied anything of that nature.

I'm honestly not certain. I absolutely understand where you are coming from and why you included the information you did but when I first read "my project... with 100 followers" it struck me wrong.

I guess it's one of those situations where the projects are so different that having to throw in some mark of delineation seems unnecessary and more like a plug...
