This repo was originally exported from http://code.google.com/p/protobuf-csharp-port,
and represents the latest "legacy" version of protobuf-csharp-port.
This project has now been folded into the [main Google Protocol Buffers project](http://github.com/google/protobuf),
and is being revamped to support proto3. It is not expected to be fully backwardly-compatible with
the code in this repo - in particular, some of the C#-specific options may not be supported in the new
codebase, and some of the generated code may differ. A new major version offers an opportunity to spring-clean,
as it were.
This repo exists as an acknowledgement that not everyone will want to immediately use the newer codebase,
and that they may wish to make changes to the legacy codebase. I do not expect to make any changes within this
repo, but it can be forked for further changes.
