    <p>After looking around at various solutions--self-hosted and hosted service--we chose to go with <a href="http://inedo.com/proget/overview">ProGet</a>. </p> <p><strong>ProGet Summary</strong></p> <p>ProGet has a standard "free" license and nominal licensing fees (single year and perpetual) for the enterprise version. We currently use the standard "free" version and have no real complaints. You can create as many feeds as you want, add as many users as you want, etc. (We created "Testing", "Staging", and "Production" feeds to be part of our quality assurance process.) The only real limit in the free version is the inability to filter external feeds for specific packages you want included in your ProGet feeds. This filtering feature is managed with "connectors". With the enterprise version--when you create a feed--you can optionally add a "connector" to pull in packages from other feeds (external or internal).</p> <p><strong>ProGet With Nuget Package Management and Creation</strong></p> <p>The steps for creating a nuget package itself I'll leave to David Ebbo's popular blog post, <a href="http://blog.davidebbo.com/2011/04/easy-way-to-publish-nuget-packages-with.html">http://blog.davidebbo.com/2011/04/easy-way-to-publish-nuget-packages-with.html</a>. However, know that for uploading packages you can upload via the ProGet packages administration web UI, <a href="http://nuget.codeplex.com/releases/view/58939">command-line nuget.exe</a>, or the <a href="http://npe.codeplex.com/">Nuget Package Explorer</a>.</p> <p><strong>ProGet Installation, Configuration, and Activation</strong></p> <p>Installing, configuring and activating ProGet was the least intuitive part. It can install backed by a regular SQL Server database or a SQL Server Express db. Furthermore, it can also be a self-hosted app or run under IIS. If you need to perform offline activation or want to request different license keys go to <a href="https://my.inedo.com">my.inedo.com</a> and create an account and you can do everything from there.</p> <p><strong>Proget Quality Control &amp; CI</strong></p> <p>CI with TeamCity is something we are going to need so we are looking at creating a nuget package build process using TeamCity's Nuget server. There's a how-to for creating the packages I'll post in a comment. The next step would be to automatically publish the TeamCity-created nuget packages over to the appropriate ProGet feeds (ie. "Testing", "Staging", "Production") perhaps utilizing command-line Nuget with an API key.</p> <p><strong>Further Information</strong></p> <p>We looked at MyGet as a hosted service but it seemed to trip up on simple scenarios like adding another contributor/user. It also jumped quite a bit in price when needing more than just two contributor accounts. Whereas with ProGet you get unlimited user accounts with the free version alone.</p> <p>One more side note: For publishing OSS type projects/packages, I'd take a look at <a href="http://chocolatey.org/">Chocolatey</a> as a solution. </p>
