There are good reasons for this.
The ASF 'owns' the org.apache prefix, and can therefore ensure
uniqueness of names within that.

Who owns pekko? What's to stop two different projects using pekko.somename?

Furthermore, if there is any code already using pekko.*, we should not
release code that uses the same prefix.
