Hello,
Just been having a quick look at your control as I was about to resurrect a truly ancient HtmlLabel control I wrote over a decade ago in VB6! Although yours has many more features and saves me reinventing the wheel.
Assuming I go ahead and use it I'll be adding a bit of functionality to which I'll submit a pull request, but my main reason for this issue report is the most basic - strong naming.
Currently the HTML Renderer library doesn't use a strong name. As all my projects use them, it means I can't use libraries without. Do you have any plans to sign the assemblies with a strong name?
There seems to be something of a war where some people love them and some hate them (kind of like the endless tab vs space indenting!) but I much prefer to have them. I can always add one to my forked code, but I guess it would complicate things if I'm trying to submit patches to make sure I remember to exclude it.
Regards;
Richard Moss
Comments: Glad you can find the library of use to you and I'm always happy to receive help with it. I won't be adding a strong name, not a big fan of it and most projects don't need it. If I were in your place I would sign the dll with my own strong name to a pre-compiled dll like so: [Adding a Strong Name to an existing DLL](http://www.geekzilla.co.uk/ViewCE64BEF3-51A6-4F1C-90C9-6A76B015C9FB.htm)
