So regarding the project naming with Maven Repository being an Apache rule, this entire thing is fishy and I will explain why. What you are seeing at https://mvnrepository.com is a pretty printed field of an XML file (specifically pom.xml) which is not even meant to be human readable. For example with https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.pekko/pekko-stream_3/1.0.2, when you see "Pekko Stream" there is no such data inside of the pom.xml that states "Pekko Stream". You can view the pom.xml yourself at https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/pekko/pekko-stream_3/1.0.2/pekko-stream_3-1.0.2.pom and what you see is that there is a <name>pekko-stream</name> xml node which the https://mvnrepository.com is manually parsing and then pretty printing as "Pekko Stream" which is what you see on the website I have made a PR at https://github.com/mdedetrich/sbt-apache-sonatype/pull/31 that adds the `apache-` prefix to the <name> xml node so that https://mvnrepository.com will display it as "Apache <x>" where <x> is the name of the artifact after the pretty printing but the point I am trying to make here is that its completely unclear what this <name> field should actually be and I would like to see where the formal ASF for this is. Normally the <name> field is the same as <artifactId> which is why its pekko-stream in the first place but I have no idea whether the <name> (using the Pekko Stream example) should be "apache-pekko-stream" or "Apache Pekko Stream".
