Clarify relation with Microsoft.Maui.Graphics nuget package about microsoft.maui.graphics HOT 2 OPEN

HI @piju3, I think this is the answer: #496 (comment)

in Jan mattleibow said this repo has moved to https://github.com/dotnet/maui

I agree the readme, contributing.md, and nuget package URLs should be updated.

The authors should also consider disabling issues and PRs in this repository.

Microsoft.Maui.Graphics package end up on this page ... Given that it's in the dotnet namespace with a matching name, and that it has a link back to the NuGet package, people naturally assume that this is the repository it's built from, which causes confusion.

Hi @piju3, thank you for pointing this out! I did not realize this before today, and I now am confused too. These two repositories appear to contain much of the same code:

• https://github.com/dotnet/maui/tree/main/src/Graphics/src/Graphics
• https://github.com/dotnet/Microsoft.Maui.Graphics/tree/main/src/Microsoft.Maui.Graphics

Interestingly, the blame history has shared commit messages:

• https://github.com/dotnet/Microsoft.Maui.Graphics/blame/main/src/Microsoft.Maui.Graphics.Win2D.WinUI.Desktop/W2DImageLoadingService.cs
• https://github.com/dotnet/maui/blame/main/src/Graphics/src/Graphics.Win2D/W2DImageLoadingService.cs

The same commits appear in both repos with different hashes:

• 35d6380
• dotnet/maui@1802d17

with identical timestamps:

• https://github.com/dotnet/Microsoft.Maui.Graphics/commit/35d6380513fabf9e36f1fcc5d3db3a0bce56bbd9.patch
• https://github.com/dotnet/maui/commit/1802d17006d5fd138a04726ae26e11212f6522c0.patch

However, changes over in the dotnet/maui repo are not reflected in this repo 💀

• dotnet/maui@f0b17ad
• https://github.com/dotnet/Microsoft.Maui.Graphics/blame/main/src/Microsoft.Maui.Graphics/PathBuilder.cs

Clarification on how these two repositories relate to each other (and especially which repository users should submit issues and PRs to) would be very helpful!

PS: I registered https://maui.graphics and pointed it here because I was tired of my titlebar searches 404ing because .graphics is a top level domain. Clarification on this topic could help me update links on that page to send people to the correct repository.
