This subset contains similar functionality to the class libraries that are being developed in [.NET Core](https://github.com/dotnet/runtime). We intend to consult the referencesource repository as we develop .NET Core. It is also for the community to leverage to enable more scenarios for .NET developers. **Please note that the referencesource repository is read-only**. [See this blog post](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/net-core-is-open-source/) for the rationale. Questions, bugs, and pull requests should be done through [.NET Core](https://github.com/dotnet/runtime). ## License The files in this repository are licensed under the [MIT](LICENSE.txt) license unless otherwise specified in the file header.
