Duplicate entries in modules.perl6.org
The problem
I seem to have ended up one of my modules, Archive-SimpleZip, appearing twice in modules.perl6.org.
I suspect that this is because, until recently, I had the module registered via the p6c (using the instructions in Upload your module to p6c . I've subsequently uploaded the module to CPAN (Upload your module to CPAN).
Suggestions
Assuming that this issue is caused by a dual registration, I think there needs to be some documentation on how to get rid of the duplicate entry.
You are probably right, but this site is mainly devoted to documenting the language, not the ecosystem. The ecosystem itself should be better documented... You can get rid of this duplicate entry by eliminating it from META.list, since you seem to be using CPAN for releasing now. Also, the ecosystem might need to be a bit more smart and detect these kind of things... I can move this issue to the ecosystem, if you want.

Understand.
Ultimately though module authors will use the docs resource to find out how to upload a module, so whatever ecosystem decides needs documented here.

Yes please.
Done :-)
