publish official builds on nuget
Overt at https://www.nuget.org/packages?q=bouncycastle there is a slew of 3rd party packages, but nothing from the BouncyCastle devs themselves, and the fips libraries seem to be absent as well. It would be really good to have official releases on nuget.
This package https://www.nuget.org/packages/BouncyCastle/ is from Peter Dettman. He is a BouncyCastle developer, so not quite true that there is nothing from BouncyCastle devs.
That package is not currently built by the team and Peter is no longer listed as an owner on that package. I would recommend the Portable.BouncyCastle version as I maintain it and it has an open CI/CI mechanism with reproducible builds enabled, so it's verifiable and signed.
It would be nice for the latest versions to be placed on nuget by "Bouncy Castle Project Contributors". I see that v1.8.9 is available on nuget, but v1.9.0 has been out since 17th October 2021 and is still not posted on nuget
https://www.nuget.org/packages/BouncyCastle.Cryptography is now available, published directly by us (Legion of the Bouncy Castle Inc.).
