Originally created by @norvegec on GitHub (Mar 16, 2015).

My goal is to have NET3.5-targeted project with tests.
Afaik, Microsoft unit test projects require NET3.5 or newer. SharpCompress.NET2 is easily upgradeable to 3.5 (just remove LinqBridge and target 3.5).
The problems with different runtime versions had arosed, when I cloned the SharpCompress.Test to target NET3.5. Some of those problems are, for example: optional parameters, absence of some IO.Directory methods, IEnumerable<T> is not covariant.

So, can we replace preprocessor-directives style of code with project-by-framework style?
We can use different branches to simplify support. What do you think?

As a side note, do we really need to support NET2 version? Windows 7 and newer (client) and Windows 2008 R2 SP1 (server) are shipped with NET 3.5.
