What is the path of the package that you would like to have removed?

github.com/z89/pascra

Are you the owner of this package?

yes

What is the reason that you could not retract this package instead?

I did not realize at the time (due to being new at golang) that uploading a go package and requesting it cached the package at pkg.go.dev. I thought I had full control of the github repo & could delete it when I wanted, and so under that assumption I wrote a childish README. I have been trying to clean things up lately, and even though I deleted the repo, the cached version still exists which will haunt me til my dying breath if it's not removed.

I have rewritten the package and included a nicer README, and I just want the old versions to be deleted. Nobody has ever used this package as a dependency, so it won't break any projects if deleted. I would like to be able to have v1.0.0 include the clean, updated README & source code, and not be tainted with childish decisions. Thanks for understanding.

removal covers the generated documentation for the entire module at all versions, it does not allow for only specific versions (use retract) or redefining what was in a given version (impossible to change).
