Hi @sectorxatwork, I recommend submitting a name dispute at https://support.github.com/contact/npm-name-disputes so that your colleagues can eventually re-use the package name, deprecate the package name, or unpublish if criteria is properly satisfied. Thank you for reaching out and have a good week!
