Re: Careful what you wish for
This article is about whether or not the new version of ASP.NET ("ASP.NET Core") will run on both the full (old) version of .NET AND the new ".NET Core". This has been the plan for a long time, but for a few days last week it wasn't the plan. But now it is again.
It's not about making ".NET Core" "backwards compatible with .NET for Windows", whatever that means.
