@@ -44,13 +44,13 @@ confluent-kafka-dotnet is distributed via NuGet. We provide five packages:
 To install Confluent.Kafka from within Visual Studio, search for Confluent.Kafka in the NuGet Package Manager UI, or run the following command in the Package Manager Console:
 
 ```
-Install-Package Confluent.Kafka -Version 1.4.2-RC3
+Install-Package Confluent.Kafka -Version 1.4.2
 ```
 
 To add a reference to a dotnet core project, execute the following at the command line:
 
 ```
-dotnet add package -v 1.4.2-RC3 Confluent.Kafka
+dotnet add package -v 1.4.2 Confluent.Kafka
 ```
 
 Note: `Confluent.Kafka` depends on the `librdkafka.redist` package which provides a number of different builds of `librdkafka` that are compatible with [common platforms](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka/wiki/librdkafka.redist-NuGet-package-runtime-libraries). If you are on one of these platforms this will all work seamlessly (and you don't need to explicitly reference `librdkafka.redist`). If you are on a different platform, you may need to [build librdkafka](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka#building) manually (or acquire it via other means) and load it using the [Library.Load](https://docs.confluent.io/current/clients/confluent-kafka-dotnet/api/Confluent.Kafka.Library.html#Confluent_Kafka_Library_Load_System_String_) method.
