v5.0.0-pre.39

v5.0.0-pre.39

• This is the first public pre-release of the next major version of Ical.Net. It's an extensive rewrite of the library, with a focus on performance, correctness and usability. All issues reported in prior versions have been addressed, and the library has been thoroughly tested, also using the libical test suite.
• We strongly recommend using the pre-release packages, as they are more stable and feature-complete than the v4.x versions.
• Feedback is highly appreciated.
• Breaking changes from v4 are currently listed here.
