I have a failed build https://ci.appveyor.com/project/FanrayMedia/fanray showing this error

```
C:\projects\fanray\test\Fan.UnitTests\Fan.UnitTests.csproj(1,1): error MSB4041: The default XML namespace of the project must be the MSBuild XML namespace. If the project is authored in the MSBuild 2003 format, please add xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003" to the <Project> element. If the project has been authored in the old 1.0 or 1.2 format, please convert it to MSBuild 2003 format.
```

I looked through all my .csproj files and don't see anything abnormal. What could be the cause of this? Thank you!

    So your problem was resolved by switching to dotnet cli?
