Fyi You sent the following message via NuGet Gallery: User pnasser <[email protected]> sends the following message to the owners of Package 'Lucene.Net.Core'. Hey Ferronrsmith. My name is Prescott Nasser, I'm the Chair of the Apache Lucene.Net project at Apache. We've had several people get confused by your package and the naming. Specifically using the Apache brand, and the fact that there is no version 4.9 of the library available. Do you mind renaming your package to avoid confusion with the official Apache Lucene.Net packages? Thanks very much Prescott Nasser VP - Lucene.Net

For reference: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Lucene.Net.Core/ The PMC needs to reach out to whoever did so and tell them it is not acceptable and they need to label their packages properly. Most likely this has happenen with the best intententions and can be rectified. Does anybody know "ferronrsmith"? Stefan
