Worked on the Particular/NServiceBus repository to improve dependency management and project configuration by removing the unused System.Security.Cryptography.Xml library from the project file. This change focused on reducing potential security risks and streamlining the dependency graph, ensuring the project maintained a minimal attack surface. The developer validated build stability and confirmed that the removal did not introduce behavioral changes, with continuous integration tests remaining successful. All modifications were documented to support future maintenance efforts. The work primarily involved editing XML configuration files and applying best practices in dependency hygiene, contributing to a more secure and maintainable codebase for the project.
