Announcing .NET 5 (Preview 4) and our journey to one .NET

• sebazzz 6y ago
  The biggest thing for a .NET developer that stands out: > We also saw an opportunity to further simplify .NET, by removing .NET Standard as a concept, for .NET 5.0+. .NET Standard has played a key role in establishing .NET Core, by creating a bridge with .NET Framework and Xamarin. [..] We don’t expect to create any new netstandard versions. .NET Standard 2.1 will likely be the last version. As a developer also supporting a few Web Forms apps I hope this doesn't cause a split in the ecosystem in which more and more libraries will drop .NET Framework support (through .NET Standard) altogether and decide only to support .NET 5.

  Are they not going to support VisualBasic beyond .Net5 then?
