[AaronFriel]

In light of #2682, we are removing the 6.0 release to root cause the replacement of existing resources during an upgrade.

Tasks

1. Node.js / NPM

@t0yv0 just in case, I checked the AWS TypeScript template:

$ cat package.json 
{
    "name": "tmp.DEWSLbsUH0",
    "main": "index.ts",
    "devDependencies": {
        "@types/node": "^16"
    },
    "dependencies": {
        "@pulumi/pulumi": "^3.0.0",
        "@pulumi/aws": "^5.0.0",
        "@pulumi/awsx": "^1.0.0"
    }
}

Did you get 6.0 by default or did you edit the template?

[t0yv0]

Oh right I edited the template.

[t0yv0]

Thanks for checking!

[t0yv0]

Go is retracted, tagged sdk/v6.0.1

[t0yv0]

I've restored my access to OSSRH, the creds are in 1password - we should probably switch to company account instead of sharing "t0yv0" creds, however I can't view https://issues.sonatype.org/browse/MVNCENTRAL-8266 support issue - no permissions. The rest seems done. @AaronFriel can you follow up on the issue since it's under your personal account. Thank you.

Maven Central / Sonatype has a policy against removing artifacts:

Sonatype policy prohibits the removal or any other modification of artifacts after they've been released. For details on this long-standing policy, have a look here:

In cases like this, we recommend that you publish a new, corrected version and inform your users to avoid the incorrect version.
