One of our users recommended that we release a prawn-edge gem that snapshot's Prawn's master branch and we responded indicating that we didn't want to do this. That user took it upon himself to upload a gem to rubygems.org anyway.

http://groups.google.com/group/prawn-ruby/browse_thread/thread/f867...

Since this could cause some confusion for our users, especially because he has not updated the version number, author, or anything else of the like, I am requesting that this gem be removed and that I am assigned permissions to future releases of prawn-edge, if it is ever used.

I understand right to fork, but this is something that really sounds like it comes from us as project maintainers, and it's quite the opposite. If this user wants to release a prawn edge gem, he should pick a different name for it.

Thanks,
greg

   I spoke to the user who uploaded this and he has removed it. So this issue is resolved.
