This past week was marked by the release of Giraffe 5.0, updates to the .NET Framework, a new version of Azure SDK, and more. InfoQ examined these and a number of smaller stories in the .NET ecosystem from the week of May 17th, 2021.
It has been a slow week for Microsoft – which is understandable, considering that this year’s edition of Microsoft Build starts tomorrow. However, there were still some important releases – such as the cumulative update for .NET Framework, which addressed performance issues in the CLR, a few bugs in WPF, and included an update to allow .NET Framework 4.8 to negotiate TLS 1.3 (in the case the underlying OS supports it).
