one example i know is use of reflection for finding out the culture of given
assembly.
in my understanding assembly attribute is mostly used for house keeping of
assembly. at least we use in our projects for automating many things (e.g.
moving/merging of files or projects, bin list display on internal developent
servers).
for the use, i wonder if there are any 'good practice' docs. we use this way
AssemblyTitle = name of asm
AssemblyDescription = as it says description/details of asm
AssemblyConfiguration = related to settings, sometimes we put setting
details but usually it is empty
AssemblyCompany = name of our company/project etc
AssemblyProduct = as it says name of the product
AssemblyCopyright = legal stuff
AssemblyTrademark = again legal stuff
AssemblyCulture = e.g. en for english th for thai etc

I wonder if there's any offical document on how to fill in these values in
the AssemblyInfo.cs file?
[assembly: AssemblyTitle("")]
[assembly: AssemblyDescription("")]
[assembly: AssemblyConfiguration("")]
[assembly: AssemblyCompany("")]
[assembly: AssemblyProduct("")]
[assembly: AssemblyCopyright("")]
[assembly: AssemblyTrademark("")]
[assembly: AssemblyCulture("")]
Second best would be some examples of good practice.
I also wonder how these values are used, except being shown in the file
properties of DLL and EXE files? Are they meant for the eye only?
