Get ogusa package name on PyPI available and updated #71

Closed rickecon closed 1 year ago

rickecon commented 1 year ago

We would like to post the ogusa package in the Python Package Index (PyPI.org) so that it can be pip installed. However, the package name is currently taken (see https://pypi.org/project/ogusa/). But this is an old version of OG-USA that was last updated 7 years ago. The maintainers of the old OG-USA package on PyPI.org are Matt Jensen, Peter Steinberg, and TJ Alumbaugh. We should get one of those maintainers to do one of the following three options (in order of preference):

  1. Have the current maintainers give @rickecon and @jdebacker control of the ogusa PyPI package. Then we can remove Matt Jensen, Peter Steinberg, and TJ Alumbaugh as maintainers and update the package.
  2. Have the current maintainers delete the old ogusa PyPI package. Then we should be able to use that package name and add the new package to PyPI.
  3. Contact PyPI to get control of a package that is out of use.

@jdebacker. This issue is resolved. @talumbau gave @rickecon and @jdebacker owner privileges to the PyPI.org ogusa package project. Now we can upload a new version of the ogusa package.
