Project to be claimed

x-anylabeling: https://pypi.org/project/x-anylabeling/

Your PyPI username

CVHub520: https://pypi.org/user/CVHub520

Reasons for the request

I am requesting the transfer of the name 'x-anylabeling'.

1. I am the original author and maintainer of the project X-AnyLabeling, actively developed at https://github.com/CVHub520/X-AnyLabeling.
2. The current project on PyPI at https://pypi.org/project/x-anylabeling/ was registered by an unaffiliated third party ('bo-7167').
3. This third party appears to have uploaded source code directly from my public GitHub repository without authorization. The listed author email (cvhub.cn@gmail.com) is mine, taken from the package metadata, not the maintainer's contact.
4. This constitutes an invalid project under PEP 541, as it appears to be name squatting and repurposing my code without permission or contribution.
5. The existence of this unofficial package creates significant confusion for users trying to find and install the official X-AnyLabeling tool.
6. I intend to upload and actively maintain the official 'x-anylabeling' package on PyPI once the name is transferred to my account (CVHub520).

Thank you for considering my request.

Maintenance or replacement?

Replacement

Source code repositories URLs

• Current project on PyPI (x-anylabeling): No source code repository is linked on the PyPI page (https://pypi.org/project/x-anylabeling/). The uploaded code appears to be taken directly from my repository below.
• Repository I intend to publish from: https://github.com/CVHub520/X-AnyLabeling

Contact and additional research

I have checked the PyPI page for 'x-anylabeling' (https://pypi.org/project/x-anylabeling/) and the user profile page for the current owner/maintainer ('bo-7167': https://pypi.org/user/bo-7167/). I could not find any public contact information (email, repository link, etc.) for this user associated with their PyPI account. The author email listed on the project page (cvhub.cn@gmail.com) is my own, scraped from the original code's metadata, and does not belong to the maintainer 'bo-7167'. Therefore, I have been unable to contact them directly regarding this issue prior to filing this request.

My research indicates this user uploaded version 2.4.2 recently. The code included appears to be a direct copy of code from my repository (https://github.com/CVHub520/X-AnyLabeling).
