I guess it depends on your feelings around the fork ... a project is more than just code; there are things like mind share and community.

Great, but that has nothing to do with copycats. A copycat is a product that copies the original and pretends it is the original.
You can't release software under an open source model and complain about "copycats" since that's literally what you gave permission for. As long as the licenses are followed, people have the right to do whatever they want with the code.
