I did an package manager `update-package` command to update our project to the latest binaries. I almost published it because it passed all the tests until luckily I had found a problem that needed some more debugging. 

My mouth fell open when I suddenly saw this exception message: 

> 
> The free-quota limit on '6000 Redis requests per hour' has been reached. Please see <https://servicestack.net> to upgrade to a commercial license.
>

What if I published this site? Practices like these are simply revolting! There is no console warning or whatsoever about not having any license. It's like having an 'open source' trojan horse spread out into your projects.

Are there any good alternatives to servicestack? 

EDIT:
Reading all the comments I guess my first reaction was a bit strong. Nuget updated from v3 to v4 automatically and although I didn't notice any breaking changes, reading the release notes would have been the right thing to do instead of bashing an otherwise good product. That being said, I think people will burn their hands on this exception, since 6000 requests would be enough to come through the tests and publishing this is disastrous.
