Protocol Buffers is a binary serialization format and technology, released to the open source community by Google in 2008.
It's primary use is to produce small fast binary representations of a 'message' or object for serialization or transportation.

There are various implementations of Protocol Buffers in .NET. This project is a fairly close port of the Google Java implementation.
There are two main parts:

tools/ProtoGen.exe, which takes binary representations of protocol buffer descriptors (as generated by the "stock" protoc binary supplied by Google) and creates C# source code. This is only required at build time.
lib/*/Google.ProtocolBuffers.dll, which is a supporting library. This is required at execution time.
lib/*/Google.ProtocolBuffers.Serialization.dll, a supplimentary library that provides extensions for reading and writing protocol buffers to xml, json, and others.
