Is there a standard C# lib, like Apache commons for java?

Php has PEAR, PERL has CPAN and Java has Appache commons. Short and simple : is there one accepted library for c# extensions/cookbook recipes?

(Feel free to close if exact duplicate, i suspect it somewhat, but don't seem to find it)

Yes there is a C# Commons similar to Java Commons.

It's relatively new but pretty good. It's CommonLibrary.NET on codeplex.com. commonlibrarynet.codeplex.com/

My company uses a mix of Java and C#. I'm now using both Java Commons and C# CommonLibrary.NET and so far it's pretty good. It's got most( not all ) of the same components that Java Commons has plus some other ones.

No; the codebase is a bit more fragmented.

Obviously there is the core framework classes (in all the different version levels), but other than that there is little concensus... codeplex has a number of useful libraries, as does code.google.com etc - but you'll generally be picking specific tools from specific community projects.
