Hootswitch, a (work-in-progress) Apple Desktop Bus switch

Is the W00tSwitch a rebranding of the HootSwitch? They sure look the same at first glance.

It seems to be a mostly TinkerDifferent affiliated fork of the project, not dissimilar to forks of other projects from that camp, like BlueSCSI.

plagiarism: an act or instance of using or closely imitating the language and thoughts of another author without authorization and the representation of that author's work as one's own, as by not crediting the original author.

They appear to be in full compliance with the hardware and software licenses intentionally selected by @saybur, and credits to the original author are present on the JCM store page, the first line of the github repo's landing page, and on the devices themselves.
