.NET standard release plan

Hi

I’m considering using Spring.Messaging.Nms in several projects for my company. The main obstacle that prevents me from taking it right now is the lack of the release of a version compatible with the .NET standard. I would like to know what is the current status of porting Spring.Messaging.Nms to .net standard and what are the release plans?

On top of earlier progress:

• I have now reworked the build pipeline to use NUKE build and it now builds and tests on both Windows and Linux.
• I decided to push the 3.0.0 release to NuGet, now there’s something to use at least, there may be dragons - but the original idea was to have reworked, netstandard-compatible mostly backwards compatible version out

I have spent considerable amount of my time (including part of my recent summer holiday) to get things working on .NET Core / NET5, all the permissions and setups done (collaboration with past maintainers), fighting the build system etc. Please do not expect me start fixing everything you might find, but everyone as consumer of the framework should provide pull requests to push things forward. Now publishing new versions should at least be (a lot) simpler.

There’s always option to sponsor, if you want to show gratitude of the past work, this will not bind me to future work 😉

Let’s consider this issue fixed!

@markpollack, @sbohlen and @lahma, @gjarzab , Is there anything we could help you with? Please release pre-release packages.

We are heavily invested in Spring.net for multiple products, It is high time we migrate to .net standard to do anything like Dockerization, getting rid of system.web, lighter application, faster performance, fewer allocations, Browser link.

@terrajobst, @simulacrux are also interested

Someone has created pre-release package here - https://www.nuget.org/packages/D3S.Spring.Core/3.0.3-pre
