Jobsworth project name

https://www.ohloh.net/p/jobsworth/

This project is called jobsworth (new) and refuses to let me rename it jobsworth.

I've posted previous help requests here over the years, but every 24 months or so I have another go at fixing this. Anyone in support at ohloh who would like to sort this out?

Aristedes,

It's clear that there is a project (visible or not) that has that name tied up. I've adjusted the name as you see it now but that may not be what you want... simple Jobsworth is not available but perhaps there is another combination you prefer.

Let me know...

Thanks!

Actually I made that other project many years ago to work around another bug in your system at the time. It has been deleted for probably 5 years. I don't understand why you cannot fix a problem in your own system.

Aristedes,

Even deleted projects hang around forever (ohloh is like an elephant - it never forgets...)

We certainly have no end of bugs. Glad you found us worth the time to do a work-around. I'll ask if we can get a dispensation to free up the name but not sure if the powers that be will agree.

Standby and thanks!

Aristedes,

Sorry about the delay. This has now been fixed.
