As I understand it, they released the Reference Source as MIT, and they are progressively working on the ".NET Core 5" project, which is based on code from their older internal implementation together with parts of the Reference Source, in order to make the opensource one.

I would seem to me that they may be partially "redacting" the code by using the reference implementations for certain methods, but that's just the paranoia speaking.

An article I read said that MS has committed to developing linux and mac versions, but I don't see where MS has committed money to it.

Keep up the good work!
