Deprecation

.NET has come along way since the early 2014 when HTML Renderer 1.5.x was started, as such support for old .NET Framework versions and client profiles are deprecated and removed.

This release targets .NET Framework 4.6.2, which is still supported by Microsoft and is compatible with any newer .NET Framework version.

Mono has been largely merged into the .NET runtime and while it continues to be maintained by the wine team, there's little point in maintaining a separate package. The goal is to move to .NET Standard 2.0 / .NET 8 / .NET 10 with the next release. See the Roadmap for more details
