Reasons for the request

The package name py-vcon is not currently being used by anyone that I can see. Yet it is giving me an error:

HTTPError: 400 Bad Request from https://upload.pypi.org/legacy/
The name 'py-vcon' is too similar to an existing project.

Maintenance or replacement?

None

Contact and additional research

py-vcon does not exist, not a transfer

Code of Conduct

dgpetrie commented 1 year ago

vCon is a new standard that I am proposing in the IETF. Its likely that several projects will have vCon in the name related to this work. For example as there are many pypi packages with JOSE (another IETF standard) in the name.

See https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-petrie-vcon

In addition, I bought the py-vcon.org and py-vcon.com domain names a month ago in support of this.
