Contact and additional research

Code of Conduct

• I agree to follow the PSF Code of Conduct

[bjornaer]

would love a review on this issue :(

[encukou]

We are working to contact the owner to determine if they're reachable.

Disclaimer: We are providing support to the PyPI Administrators to validate
this request and make a recommendation on the outcome and actions to be
taken. Final determination will be made by the PyPI Administrators when our
process is complete.

[encukou]

The project "eigen" has been deemed invalid. Additionally, the owner did not
respond in a week.
We recommend that the PyPI Administrators transfer the project to bjornaer.

@encukou eigen owner here. I uploaded a new version three weeks ago! Please review the decision.

[encukou]

OK. We will review next week.

Before the qualified people get to it, let me note that per the acceptable use policy, PyPI does not allow content that uses obfuscation techniques to hide or mask functionality.

[encukou]

Obfuscated packages (like eigen and x21) are now discussed at the PSF level, here: psf/policies#18. Thanks for opening the issue.

The discussion can take a long time (PyPI admins are busy), and I do not know how it'll end: the package can be kept in place, or removed and the name blocked (to prevent surprises for existing users).

In neither case can we release the name. @bjornaer, you will unfortunately need to find a different name for your project.
