In the past security vulnerabilities were reported via nuget and it is not
a good idea to publish those in an automated way.

I suggest to update the nuget project documentation and prominently point
to our mailing lists and discourage the communication via nuget. Users may
continue sending messages via nuget to pmc but hopefully the volume is
reduced. Unfortunately most users consume log4net via nuget and apparently
do not care about the mailing list and/or the official project website.
