Description
Content strategy plan
In https://help.github.com/packages/publishing-and-managing-packages/deleting-a-package#reserved-package-versions-and-names we say that:
To prevent confusion and build problems, GitHub permanently reserves a package's name and version number. Even if an entire package is deleted, you cannot reuse the deleted package name in any repository owned by the same account.
However, this behavior was modified recently. Now if all versions of a private package are deleted, the user can re-create the package with any version number they want. When all versions of a package have been deleted, republishing over those deleted versions (i.e. publishing a package with the same name and version) should be the same as publishing a new package for the first time.
Content plan
The existing docs are still true for public packages, but we'll want to update the content to note the new behavior for private packages.
Audience
Maintainers of GitHub Packages.
Content to update
We'll want to update https://help.github.com/packages/publishing-and-managing-packages/deleting-a-package#reserved-package-versions-and-names to note the new behavior for private packages.
