Request to clean up published_state_indicator namespace

Projects are not deleted from Drupal.org. Since there is a release, we would not put someone in a situation where something they are using is removed; and we certainly wouldn’t want the possibility of existing releases replaced with a different codebase.

If you would like to direct people to a replacement project, you can mark the releases and projects as unsupported and update the project to note what it is replaced by.

There is a release but nobody is using it because I just created it and realised the short name was used.
The issue with creating another project is that I cannot now use that project name as it's taken.

I created a new project using the full name as the short name but now the releases use both as the composer package name.
composer require 'drupal/published_state_indicator-published_state_indicator:^1.0'

What is going on?

please, please ...

@drumm I can see why deleting/unpublishing an actively used project would be a bad idea. I think it's pretty clear @omahm is in a bit of a stuck state due to being unfamiliar with the module/composer admin process so this is more of a support request to yourself or another person who might be able to help. A new project was created to supersede the original module but it's unclear why the composer package name has the structure @omahm outlined in comment #5.

I guess we need a steer on how to turn drupal/published_state_indicator-published_state_indicator into drupal/published_state_indicator, if possible? Any help or directions much appreciated, thanks

Note that the prefixing of a project with its own name was not an error, but rather a way to prevent a namespace collision with the first project created.

Updating the namespaces is a manual process on the DA's part - I've gone ahead and made the following change now:

• https://www.drupal.org/project/psi →
  • Submodule old namespace: published_state_indicator
  • Submodule new namespace: psi-published_state_indicator
• https://www.drupal.org/project/published_state_indicator →
  • Old package namespace: published_state_indicator-published_state_indicator
  • New package namespace: published_state_indicator

@hestenet that's great and I really appreciate you cleaning up the namespaces.
