I'll disagree.

The GAC is a runtime assembly binding construct. It is not used at 
compile-time: there is no support within the C# compiler or the IDE to 
reference assemblies located within the GAC. The GAC is only used when running 
a managed program, to resolve assembly references within that program.

I would suggest using Project References instead of .NET Assembly references.

No.

That's unrelated.
