[Week 3] Porting Microsoft's CoreCLR, CoreFX, and PowerShell to FreeBSD

[Mateus Rodrigues de Morais]

Hello all,

During this third week, I worked on bringing over the rest of the .NET Core SDK to FreeBSD. I managed to bootstrap an SDK with natively-compiled CoreCLR, CoreFX and CLI, as well as managed code built for FreeBSD-specific features that are already implemented.

However, further debugging seems to be needed as not all SDK features are working right now. I'm in touch with MS .NET community to get that sorted out.

The goal of this next week is to get this bootstrapped SDK to create, build, publish and run a .NET Core app successfully.

I should mention that I'm tracking my progress over at my gsoc18-progress repo on GitHub [1] as well as discussing with the community over at the .NET repositories also on GitHub [2].

Best,

Mateus de Morais.
