When will System.CommandLine package become GA

[samaniehsan]

Hi,
I noticed that System.CommandLine on nuget and https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/commandline/
have been marked as preview for almost a year now.

what is the plan to mark these packages as GA?

I was hoping to use its capability to detect shutdown signals on k8s.

Yeah, it has been some time since and would like to see it reach GA. I've had a few projects broken/rewritten a few times based on changes overtime (problem with cutting edge 😄). Team has been working hard and believe it will be worth it once released.

Might want to keep an eye out for #2071

Also came across this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDQGsZSEDOk

We are working on some design changes due to API review and hope to have an announcement on this quite soon.

That would be fantastic, as I am in the same boat as @shaggygi

@KathleenDollard any update on that? This is probably the preview package with the most downloads ever. The latest preview version has 6.5M Downloads and is already used in many production applications. Wouldn't it make sense to mark it stable?

Its really been silent on this front and it would be great to know what is the future of the project.
