Feel free to add your notes to this topic below.

The Common Language Specification is a subset of the Common Type System (CTS) and is an agreement between language designers and the library designers. The CLS contains rules that library designers should follow and language designers should support.

The CLS contains rules like avoiding the use of unsigned types for public members and that identifiers should not have the same name with a different case. The rules are not enforced by most compilers but should be taken in account for members that are publically accessible from the library.
