Marc:
The new projects you mention that are targeting a specific C# platform are actually targeting that version of the .NET Framework that has that level of C#, since they are one and the same.
As a result, you would have to install that version of the .NET Framework for the version of C# you are looking for...

Yes, that thought occurred to me as I was driving to the grocery store.

HOWEVER, if you have Visual Studio installed, BE VERY CAREFUL how you upgrade the .NET Framework. You must use an update specific for the Visual Studio version you are using or you could have serious issues with the IDE.
I learned this the hard way...

What about security?
Where I am working, we absolutely need to keep up with the latest versions of the .NET runtime and JVM because of security issues in older versions (yes, and patch the newer versions).
I am currently working with VS 2015 update 3 but will move to 2017 as the software engineering organization moves to it.

The IT department hasn't a clue. Oh sure, things are "secured" all over the place, requiring hoops to get access to a particular database or internal website. But that's about the extent of it.
I'll have to add that to the "why we should upgrade the build server" reasons. Thanks!

C# 7.1. But I'm doing a "staff upgrade" on myself. The thing about new language features is not so much what one feature can add, but how together they change the way you code and think about solutions.

I think that you should kick the Hobbit!
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Just came out of a meeting where new management styles were mentioned, Kanban in particular.
That goes referenced an 'Can Can', which made me think of Can Can dancers.
And then my Scottish heritage kicked in...
Think about men in kilts doing the Can Can dance...

As a child, our refrigerator had a spring loaded latch on the door; newer ones seems to have a magnetic seal.
My older brother told our younger brother to stick his finger in the latch; when the younger brother did that, the latch snapped and hit his finger.
Much yelling ensued...
Our Dad said to the older brother, "Some day, I'll even the score with you for him...."
I reminded my older brother of that periodically until our Dad passed...
