Re: Do we need to hide packages in NEW queue



Hi,

I think publishing NEW uploads is not a problem.

Historically, it was, because of export controls on cryptographic software.

Still, there is a difference between a git repository (with clear attribution) and distribution through an official channel -- even if the upload will be rejected at a later stage -- especially if that later stage is two months later.

We would probably have to set up a process similar to DMCA complaints -- an easy way to get content unpublished quickly, and a following dispute resolution. That sounds 面倒くさい.
