pack - Nuspec validation on choco pack

[laedit]

Like discussed in the mailing list, it would be great if the nuspec validation was done during the choco pack command: it could save time and prevent the submission of incorrect package.

This should make sure to validate the character limits of the various nuspec elements as well as things that the validator checks, since those will fail on choco push instead of at the validator. Given the number of people affected by #2007

Also, if this will include the nuspec url validation, I think that should either be disabled by default or possibly toggle-able by a feature switch. This is for anyone building the package inside an offline or locked down environment.

As we discussed, this would indeed make sense to be able to configure this check.

I believe this is resolved in part, and will be resolved in full, but the recent release of the Community Validation Extension. There was a recent blog post and live stream around it.

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward? This issue will be closed in 14 days if it continues to be inactive.
