for this case (the benefit of everyone who is interesting in apache thunder stuff) i think it's perfectly justified...In my time zone they were all on different days. Though I think common decency is to wait at least a couple of days before bumping there isn't really a written rule on exactly how much time has to pass before bumping is allowed (at least not on this forum)
i bet if he pm'd a mod it would be displayed in the front page.. this is good stuff
