I gave away the “ty” project name on pypi to Astral a week or so ago. I wanted to use it for a joke a few years ago but this is a much better use for a two letter project name. They agreed to make a donation to the PSF to demonstrate their gratefulness.

Yes, thank you for your graciousness and generosity, very much appreciated.
I love this outcome; kudos to you and Astral both!
thanks for not charging obnoxious amounts for package names!
ty--thank you
nice! what was the planned joke?
Either something about beanie babies or something riffing on "thank you". Couldn't ever make up my mind then basically forgot about it.
