 **System.IO** - Path APIs no longer check invalid characters directly.
 
-To improve performance and unblock cross platform scenarios System.IO.Path methods no longer check for validity of characters outside of the null character. Most System.IO APIs that take a path are impacted by this. Attempting to use a path that the OS/file system doesn't handle will return the system reported IOException when actually using the path as opposed to an ArgumentException before passing the path to the OS.

 **System.Security** - New SignedCms APIs

 **System.Security** - New X509Certificate.GetCertHash overload for SHA-2
 
-New overloads for X509Certificate.GetCertHash and X509Certificate.GetCertHashString accept a hash algorithm identifier to enable callers to get certificate thumbprint values using algorithms other than SHA-1.

 **System.Security** - New Span-based cryptography APIs
 
 Span-based API is available for hashing, HMAC, (cryptographic) random number generation, asymmetric signature generation, asymmetric signature processing, and RSA encryption.
 
 **System.Security** - Rfc2898DeriveBytes performance improvements
 
-By switching to Span-based computations the computations of Rfc2898DeriveBytes (PBKDF2) have sped up about 15% compared to prior releases.  Users who have benchmarked an iteration count for an amount of server time can now increase their iteration count accordingly.

 **System.Memory** - New APIs for efficient low-allocation access to memory
 
-The component contains primitives and libraries that can be used to optimize memory usage. The primitives, Span<T>, ReadOnlySpan<T>, Memory<T>, and ReadOnlyMemory<T> are types for efficient representation of managed, stack, and native memory segments.  ReadOnlySequence<T> represents a sequence of such segments. The rest of the component are reusable APIs operating on these primitives. For example, the Utf8Parser class can be used to parse UTF-8 encoded text stored in a memory segment. Similarly, Utf8Formatter can be used to format UTF-8 text into a memory segment. It also contains BinaryPrimitive APIs which let you read and write blittable types into and from Span<byte> with support for endianness.

 ### Global Tools
 
-Global tools let you install a tool from a NuGet feed into your local path. This makes in available in a similar manner to npm -g.

 **dotnet --list-sdks**
 
 `dotnet --list-sdks` provides a list of .NET Core SDKs installed on the machine
 
-Many .NET Core SDKs may be installed on a given machine. The new --list-sdks switch lists installed SDKs along with the base path where they are installed. This new switch is present in the .NET Core host, which has a single copy on the machine. Thus, this switch works once the preview is installed, regardless of global.json or if the preview is uninstalled.
