.NET Core Contributor Model

The .NET Core project has three levels of contributors.

• All GitHub users: Read access to code and issues. Can participate in pull request code reviews, comment on issues, create new issues, and submit pull requests for review.
• "Project contributor" - Can be assigned issues and @referenced. Part of the dotnet-community team. Provided based on frequent contributions or upon request¹.
• "Project committer" - Has repo committer access. Can merge PRs, assign people on issues, create branches, .... Currently only MSFT people, but will likely include other folks in the future.

¹Requires that a .NET Foundation CLA has been signed.

    // As a result, the value is 'false'. A false value implies the latest behavior.

    // The library can declare a default value for a switch based on a condition

// Task: Compute the sums of the values in two arrays of integers, A and B.

// Traditional approach: 

for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
{
    C[i] = A[i] + B[i];
}

// With Vector<int> you can instead do this:

// Example 1: Signing a byte[] using PKCS#1 v1.5 padding and a SHA-256 hash
 
// 4.5:
public static byte[] SignDataPkcs1Sha256(X509Certificate2 cert, byte[] data)
{
    // X509Certificate2.PrivateKey returns the same object across multiple calls,
    // so it shouldn't be Disposed independent of the X509Certificate2 object.

// old approach - need a `ref` value
