Your help is, like everybody elses, highly welcome. If we can stay on a 
professional plane, that would be awesome. Making everybody else who 
contributed so far looking like an idiot is not, and I will not tolerate that. 
Even if there have been made such-and-such decisions in the past, there were 
good reasons for it. If we feel a certain need to change things, we should 
absolutely do it, and you have my full support for it. But judging past 
decisions with the knowledge of today does not help anybody, so let's look 
forward and focus on what we want to do here.

> Current state and future of .NET libraries ("csharp" and "netcore")?

>                 Key: THRIFT-4535
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4535
>             Project: Thrift
>          Issue Type: Question
>          Components: C# - Library, netcore - Library
>            Reporter: Christian Weiss
>            Priority: Major

> Hi,
> We are trying to use Thrift in one of our projects but we ran into some very 
> fundamental issues:
>  * The "csharp" project does not target ".NET Standard" and there's only a 
> very old release on nuget.org ( if [https://www.nuget.org/packages/Thrift/] 
> is the official one).
>  * The "netcore" project does target ".NET Standard" but there's no release 
> yet ( https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4512 ) and it also has a 
> dependency on ASP.NET Core ( 
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4534 ) which makes it unusable 
> in non-web projects.
> I'm wondering why there even are 2 separate projects for .NET? It's important 
> to understand that ".NET Core" is not a new programming API - It's just a new 
> platform - very similar to Silverlight, Mono, Windows Phone. This means that 
> it would also be possible to support .NET Core and the new ".NET Standard" 
> (which represents a common set of APIs for all platforms) with the existing 
> "csharp" project. 
> Was this a deliberate decision - e.g. to make the "netcore" code the official 
> successor of the "csharp" code? 
> Would you be interested in merging the code back into one library? I'd be 
> willing to help if you want!
> It would be great to get one proper, up to date and official .NET library 
> soon as there's already quite a lot of weird forks on NuGet.org: 
> https://www.nuget.org/packages?q=Thrift
