Where to find Tizen.Xamarin.Forms.Extension library

In many code snippets in official tutorials references to classes from Tizen.Xamarin.Forms.Extension namespace are made. A nuget package of that name is referenced by projects in Tizen-CSharp-Samples repository on GitHub. The problem is that I can't seem to find this library enywhere, not on NuGet, not in my system. I have the latest version of the SDK and everything installed my the Package Manager. Am I missing something? I'm trying to show an RTSP stream using this code from the tutorial but can't compile it because of missing reference to the extension library:

var mediaView = new Tizen.Xamarin.Forms.Extension.MediaView();

mediaView.NativeViewCreated += (s, e) =>
{
    player.Display = new Display((Tizen.Multimedia.MediaView)mediaView.NativeView);
};

The Guide on Tizen Developers Site Says:

"In order to use the Tizen.Xamarin.Forms.Extension APIs, you should install the Tizen.Xamarin.Forms.Extension package through the Manage NuGet Packages for Solution dialog on Visual Studio."

https://developer.tizen.org/development/tizen-.net-preview/api

Please Check If you find Tizen.Xamarin.Forms.Extension on Marketplace.

Yes, I've read that but the package on NuGet has been unlisted and the latest version doesn't match the one used in the samples on GitHub hosted by Samsung. The version on NuGet is 2.3.5-v00009 but samples use 2.4.0-v00014. And because the package was unlisted by the author you can't even find it there anymore, unless you know the exact name. Should we not use it?

If the case is: Author intentionally unlisted the package themselves, Surely they don't want us to use the package anymore. Though I haven't seen any deceleration regarding Tizen.Xamarin.Forms.Extension being discontinued.

Just as I expected. But Still There should have been a declaration on Tizen Developers Site.

Reply from one of the developers:

The extension set of Tizen is used to be provided as Tizen.Xamarin.Forms.Extension package, but it is no longer supported. It is not available to provide all the features that developer wants, so we planed to provide extensions as the Samples.

I expect those samples would be the good examples that developers can refer or maybe simply copy or modify to use on their apps. The samples will be released as soon as prepared.
