Project to be claimed

brim: https://pypi.org/project/brim

Your PyPI username

tjstienstra: https://pypi.org/user/tjstienstra

Reasons for the request

Would like to use the package name brim, as it is a good acronym for bicycle-rider models. And the package is used create bicycle-rider models. I was able to successfully publish it on test-pypi. However when trying to publish it on PyPi I got an error that the name would not be allowed:

HTTP Error 400: The name 'brim' isn't allowed. See https://pypi.org/help/#project-name for more information. | b"<html>\n <head>\n  <title>400 The name 'brim' isn't allowed. See https://pypi.org/help/#project-name for more information.\n \n <body>\
n  <h1>400 The name 'brim' isn't allowed. See https://pypi.org/help/#project-name for more information.\n  The server could not comply with the request since it is either malformed or otherwise incorrect.<br/><br/>\nThe name &#x27;brim&#x27; isn&#x
27;t allowed. See https://pypi.org/help/#project-name for more information.\n\n\n \n"

The four reasons why my desired project name don't seems applicable, unless I'm missing something:

  • It does not have naming conflicts with the python standard library
  • Would not say that it could be confused with either brim-cloud-client or BRImage
  • It does not seems to be a name which would be explicitly prohibited
  • I was not able to find a claim or project that was already registered under the name 'brim'

Maintenance or replacement?

None
