Delist from RubyGems?

[HamptonMakes]

Hi @mm53bar !

Hate to be sorta rude and ask this, but fortune favors the brave!

I'm working on a new Ruby gem that I'm hoping to announce at RubyConf in the fall, and currently I'm having to use a pretty uninspiring gem name "named_hash", the idea is that it's roughly equivalent to HashWithIndifferentAccess, but better developer experience and something I plan on arguing should be part of the Ruby Standard Library!

Anyhow, you have this project here named "dash" that's been dormant for 13 years... and the name is a combo of Dictionary and Hash and... well, gosh, it's pretty damn perfect for my new library!

Any chance you'd consider un-publishing your "dash" gem so I can slide on in there? https://rubygems.org/gems/dash

Thank's for considering anyway! Hope you have a great day!

-hampton.

Thanks for reaching out @HamptonMakes. To be honest, I completely forgot that I even published that as a gem. Your request makes perfect sense and, in the spirit of MINASWAN, I'm very open to giving you that name.

I can't currently use gem yank with it because of its age.

Versions published more than 30 days ago cannot be deleted. Please contact RubyGems support (support@rubygems.org) to request deletion of this version if it represents a legal or security risk.

I've reached out rubygems to see if they can help me with unpublishing it.

@HamptonMakes The gem should now be unpublished. Took the ruby gems folks a few weeks.

Let the renaming commence!
