Compilation and Installation
============================
collector.
* On platforms that support it, after building Mono, you will have
-both a `mono` binary and a `mono-sgen` binary. `mono` uses Boehm,
+both a `mono-boehm` binary and a `mono-sgen` binary. `mono-boehm` uses Boehm,
while `mono-sgen` uses the Simple Generational GC.
-* `--with-gc=[included, boehm, none]` - Selects the default Boehm
+* `--with-libgc=[included, none]` - Selects the default Boehm
garbage collector engine to use.
* *included*: (*slightly modified Boehm GC*) This is the default
value for the Boehm GC, and it's the most feature complete, it will
allow Mono to use typed allocations and support the debugger.
- * *boehm*: This is used to use a system-install Boehm GC, it is
-useful to test new features available in Boehm GC, but we do not
-recommend that people use this, as it disables a few features.
-
* *none*:
-Disables the inclusion of a garbage collector.
+Disables the inclusion of a Boehm garbage collector.
* This defaults to `included`.
* There are a number of runtime options to control this
also, see the man page.
+* `--with-csc=roslyn,mcs,default`
+
+ * Use this option to configure which C# compiler to use. By default
+ the configure script will pick Roslyn, except on platforms where
+ Roslyn does not work (Big Endian systems) where it will pick mcs.
+
+ If you specify "mcs", then Mono's C# compiler will be used. This
+ also allows for a complete bootstrap of Mono's core compiler and
+ core libraries from source.
+
+ If you specify "roslyn", then Roslyn's C# compiler will be used.
+ This currently uses Roslyn binaries.
+
* `--enable-nacl`
* This configures the Mono compiler to generate code
* Currently this is used with Mono's AOT engine as
Native Client does not support JIT engines yet.
+* `--enable-wasm`
+
+ * Use this option to configure mono to run on WebAssembly. It will
+ set both host and target to the WebAssembly triplet. This overrides
+ the values passed to `--host` or `--target` and ignored what config.sub guesses.
+
+ This is a workaround to enable usage of old automake versions that don't
+ recognize the wasm triplet.

Working With Submodules
=======================
The desired output diff is a change in `.gitmodules` to reflect the
change in the remote URL, and a change in /<submodule> where you see
the desired change in the commit hash.
+
+License
+=======
+
+See the LICENSE file for licensing information, and the PATENTS.TXT
+file for information about Microsoft's patent grant.
+
+Mono Trademark Use Policy
+=========================
+
+The use of trademarks and logos for Mono can be found [here] (http://www.dotnetfoundation.org/legal/mono-tm).
+
+Maintaining the Class Library Solution Files
+============================================
+
+Mono now ships with a solution file that can be used to build the
+assemblies from an IDE. Either by opening the topmost `net_4_x.sln`
+file, or to by loading one of the individual `csproj` files located in
+each directory.
+
+These are maintained by extracting the configuration information from
+our Makefiles, which as of May 2016 remain the canonical location for
+configuration information.
+
+When changes are made to the Makefiles, a user would need to run the
+following command to re-generate the solution files at the top level:
+
+ $ make update-solution-files
