Which sibling/parent are you talking about?

Rosetta was developed entirely from the beginning within Canonical.

Rosetta is based upon free software such as Python, Zope and Postgres,
but it is itself not under the GPL or any other free licence.

Note also that Sourceforge is proprietary, yet you advocate using it as
a service for free software development. Rosetta is in a similar
situation.
