Add reserved namespaces
Idea by @Warr1024
3.3. Reserved namespaces
A reserved namespace is a prefix to a package name like
abc_, where any package names that begin with that prefix need permission from the namespace owner to be used.You can request a namespace be reserved by opening a thread on a package that uses it. A namespace must be in active use and must be specific enough to have low risk of conflict - for example,
mobscannot be a reserved namespace. The package must also be deemed "serious" enough to get a reservation - larger and more longterm projects are more likely to qualify.Mod names used in packages posted on CDB or the forums before 2020-07-15 are exempt.
List of reserved namespaces:
nc_is reserved by NodeCore.ikea_is reserved by IKEA.
Please make it so that mcl_ can not be reserved, as there exist three related projects (MineClone2, MineClone5. Mineclonia) and several independent mods that use the prefix.
Forks will be able to use the same namespace
