<p>Our policy is to only perma-delete gems that really need it,
such as gems that may contain passwords, malicious/harmful code,
etc. Yanking a gem effectively removes it from being found and will
do the trick in 99% percent of situations.</p>
<p>If there's a stronger reason to delete the gem let us know.
Sorry about the delay here.</p></div>Nick Quaranto
