It would be more consistent to use the same repo as Ter, although I'm not sure if a true branch is necessary. Wouldn't at least the CSharp3 target work in parallel with the existing ones?

Just mark it as being "Alpha" stage and people know the risk. At the very least one can look at the source code to quench the own curiosity.
