No it does not. It contains all kinds of Delphi Metadata - that all
shows up in VS intellisense and is completely useless and confusing to
C#, VB or any other user.

Also, don't confuse C# and VB.NET with the "usual way .NET languages
implement things" sure these are by far the most common .NET
languages, but there are some really obscure things out there that do

C# and VB.NET are the most compliant .NET languages. Thats one major
reason C# is highly incompatible with C++ and VB.NET with VB.
