I'm not worrying about goodness or badness.  To me, the point is
that his uploads are destroying previous work.  They also prevent
tracking the changes made.  We all know that bad ports are possible
and do occur, and thus need correction.  But just reloading the
same file name doesn't allow the user to detect it, except possibly
by detailed examination of the exact file dates.
