Quick link to what I think is the most interesting class in the CLR: https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/blob/master/src/mscorlib/s...
// We want to ensure we can change our hash function daily.
// This is perfectly fine as long as you don't persist the
// value from GetHashCode to disk or count on String A
// hashing before string B. Those are bugs in your code.
hash1 ^= ThisAssembly.DailyBuildNumber;
I'd love to hear the story behind this one :D
MIT-licensed, even.
I wonder why they would do this. In fact, I don't see the benefit of MIT over Apache except for compatibility with GPLv2. But I'm definitely not an expert, if someone would want to explain.
Next step, WinForms
I don't think they are going to open-source legacy stuff that they want people to forget. .Net, ASP.NET, CLR -- all of it is technology they want to keep.
One of the projects I am currently working on, a greenfield application, requires WindowsForms for reasons I cannot expose here.

I wish. One of the projects I am currently working on, a greenfield application, requires WindowsForms for reasons I cannot expose here.
