I would love to use it.  Unfortunately, my project is well underway and under 
tight deadlines, so we can't afford the disruption of switching to NuGet for 
Lucene, or any of the other libraries we use.  However, once we release, I 
definitely want to embrace NuGet and would love for Lucene.NET to be available 
through NuGet.

Subject: [Lucene.Net] Nuget, Lucene.Net, and Your Thoughts

We're taking a quick poll over the next few days to see how people would like 
use Lucene.Net through Nuget on the developers mailing list**

Currently version 2.9.2 is hosted on nuget.org, but that package was not create 
by the project maintainers, thus nuget is not currently set up in source.  
Going forward, we would like to continue what someone else started by creating 
nuget packages for Lucene.Net.

Right now there are two packages: Lucene & Lucene.Contrib.  My question to the 
community is do you wish to finer grain packages, i.e. a package for each 
contrib project or continue to keep it simple.

The granular approach will let you use only what you need. We can also create 
additional higher level packages which have dependencies on the other
ones.   Possibly a Lucene.Net-Essentials and Lucene.Net-Full.

Or we can keep it simple and continue with only two packages.

My concerns are that the granular approach might overwhelm people with choice. 
The simple choice might be considered bloat for importing and then installing 
assemblies that you might never use.


Another topic to converse about is would you like to see an out-of-band project 
nuget feed for  nightly builds, branches with new or experimental features, or 
stable code snapshots for a projected release?
