Hi Robert,

Thanks for letting us know, and I'm definitely interested in knowing the 
details about it.
Ideally again, if it's the only point of dependency on .Net 4.0 and there's a 
3.5 alternative commented out, I'm all for making your change standard until 
there is a stronger motive for alienating the user base.

Regards,

Jesse

.NET 4.0 is only enforced by accident. There is only one place where a bit of 
.NET 4.0 code is used (CloseableThreadLocal), and there is an alternative for 
.NET <= 3.5 commented out in this file.

I was able to compile 2.9.4 with the .NET 3.5 tool chanin while targeting plain 
.NET 2.0 without any issue.

If someone is interested, I'd publish the necessary (minimal) changes.

Robert
