Yes, and I think this should be strongly discouraged.   For starters, spec
files and patches are a poor substitute for revision control.  It also makes
it significantly more painful for other people to reuse the work (c.f. the
Ubuntu developer's request).

If we have situations like this - put up a project on
hosted.fedoraproject.org.  Or code.google.com.  Or sourceforge.
