Also, I guess it would be nice to have a package name that gives some indication of what it is about (unless ofcourse the name itself is  well and widely known )

I just posted a review for avl (the Aerodynamic and flight-dynamic

it conflicts with the retired avl package (the AVL tree manipulation
library). How should one proceed in such situations? Does the old
repository needs to be deleted before the new one is created?

Please do not reuse package names for unrelated software.  It is quite confusing and can interfere with all kinds of tracking/package mapping efforts.
