Is it alive or abandoned

[ds1709]

Well, my question is presented in subject. Is this project alive or abandoned? I got simple PR with important fix, which is hanging more than half of year. Also there's no any release since april 2019 (more than two years!).
So, is there any plans to support this project or is it abandoned?

I sometimes miss things (I get so many notifications it's impossible to keep up with them all). I'll try to find the PR in question.

Also there's no any release since april 2019 (more than two years!).

There are several preview releases in that time. I would encourage using them. 👍

I'm assuming the PR in question is:
#3335

I need to find a Russian-speaking contributor to docs.microsoft.com to verify this change and then we can get it merged.

The issue for PR #3335 is here #3334.

Hi @sharwell - I have a similar question/concern. StyleCop hasn't had an "official" (non-beta) release in almost 3 years now. Meanwhile, we've seen the C# language march on significantly, and some new language features are being flagged as warnings/errors (with the official 1.1.118 release) when they're in fact valid/encouraged C# syntax.

Also, I see many more analyzers being provided out of the box with "core" .NET these days, chipping away at what StyleCop provides. What is the overall vision/future for StyleCop, and when a formal StyleCop release will be made please?

Thanks for all that you do in supporting StyleCop - it's a great tool.

@sharwell Do you have an ETA when a new stable release can be expected?

There are no plans to remove the beta suffix for releases in the short term. Since this is a development-only dependency, the beta suffix has no impact on NuGet package release management.

I found a team to help resolve the original request, so closing this.
