D is correct, as there are no @default so C is out, you need two views instaed of one, so B is out. the right action is promote a package and A is out, so D is the right answer.

D is the answer. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/artifacts/concepts/best-practices?view=azure-devops#create-and-publish-packages To make a package available to early adopters, you can select it from your feed and promote it to the @prerelease view. Once you've deemed the package to be of sufficient quality for a full release, you can promote it to the @release view. By promoting package versions to a view, you can prevent them from being deleted by retention policies.

I am wondering why C) is incorrect. Both C and D are virtually the same solution except with different viewnames.

Selected Answer: D

When a package is ready for early adopters, select that package from within your feed and promote it to the @prerelease view. When the package is deemed of sufficient quality to be released, promote that package to the @release view.
