I don't know where you are getting that from, and the link I posted plainly says otherwise - could you share your source?

Heres the announcement: https://github.com/aspnet/AspNetCore/issues/3753

OK, so this announcement is not about .NET Core 3.0 not conforming to .NET Standard - it's about ASP.NET Core 3.0 only running on .NET Core, and not on .NET Standard.

I agree that's still terrible news though, and I'm not sure how I managed to miss it. This seems like a very bad idea.
