So, just to be clear, proposed language removals are: Approved:
Cocoa C++03 or less Open: JavaME (potential; I’ll look at setting up an Android CI environment and using the standard Java lib there to see if it’s feasible) .net 4.5 or less (no vote yet) Silverlight One of nodets/ts (can we end up only with one, or are there legitimate differences between the two was the question) Allen On January 2, 2019 at 15:55:41, Jens Geyer ([email protected]) wrote: Hi, start a vote. A while ago some people claimed that 4.5+ was not available on their particular subset of Mono. I tend to think that this is no longer the case anymore, so we should drop anything below 4.5. And since wer'e at it: Same for Silverlight, if you ask me. It is still supported until 2012 by Microsoft, but I doubt if anyone really uses it except for maintaining legacy projects. Maybe we should have a vote about that too. Have fun, JensG -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- From: James E.

We already support netstandard2.0 (.NET Core SDK 2.0) and build lib/netcore and run cross tests with that. The docker build image (build/docker/ubuntu-bionic/Dockerfile) defines the version we build against. I was wondering about the .NET 3.5 in lib/csharp and whether we really need a 3.5 and a 4.5 csproj. It's not a big deal really, just a small simplification, but if a lot of people are still on .NET 3.5 then we may decide not to remove support for it yet. - Jim On Wed, Jan 2, 2019 at 12:55 PM Randy Abernethy <[email protected]> wrote: > While we're in the process of dropping old lang vers, I think we > should consider only tracking the latest version of .Net Core (2.2). > Core is CLI build friendly and cross platform.
