Do you have any timescales for updating the VS2022 image to 17.2?

We'd love to start using https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/nuget/consume-packages/Central-Pac... but it requires
VS 17.2+
Nuget 6.2.0+
.NET SDK 6.0.300+

Can these software packages be added to the default BYOC image config?

   Hi Matt,

   I'm not sure if VS 17.2 is required to use Central Package Management feature while building from a command line, but you can install both .NET 6.0.300 and NuGet 6.2 during the build right now.

   Installing .NET 6.0.300:

   Invoke-WebRequest -Uri 'https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.ps1' -UseBasicParsing -OutFile "$env:temp\dotnet-install.ps1"
   & $env:temp\dotnet-install.ps1 -Architecture x64 -Version '6.0.300' -InstallDir "$env:ProgramFiles\dotnet"
   

   Installing NuGet 6.2:

   (New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadFile('{nuget-url}', "C:\Tools\NuGet\nuget.exe")
   

   however, I don't see NuGet 6.2 on its download page: https://www.nuget.org/downloads. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/nuget/consume-packages/Central-Pac... contains a link to that page as well as non-existent NuGet 6.2 release notes.
