Hi, I need to use newtonsoft serializer, and I see the Elastic.Clients.Elasticsearch.JsonNetSerializer project in github, but I can't find corresponding Nuget package.

Hi, @Maxim_Stepanov.  
We no longer ship this package and recommend using the built-in System.Text.Json serializer. Is there a reason that is not possible in your case? If you need to customise the source serializer, you can plug in your own serializer based on this [documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/net-api/current/source-serialization.html).
