We need to have a PCL to support Xamarin

[ovatsus]

We had the original solution from Rasmus Faber's on FSharp.Data for some time, and now ported also the mono implementation from PUrify, but we haven't managed to find a pcl implementation. If you do find one, we're interested :)

@ovatsus you mean if will have a PCL? I am going to create it now.

Humm, so purify is a nop in PCL? What if the PCL is used on a desktop .NET application?

[glennblock]

Not exactly. The implementation of the PCL is a stub yes. This is fine for
Windows Phone. because Uri should support pct-encoding not being escaped
similar to .NET 4.5. The stub is a trick to enable the PCL to still target
the phone so that it can be referenced from phone apps.

The PCL nuget though will also contain the .NET 3.5 Purify DLL in a Net35
folder. Because of how nuget works at installation time, this DLL will
overwrite the PCL if running on the desktop or Mono/Xamarin.

We need to test this out and may require additional platform folders in the
package, but we will eventually get to where we want to be.
