If you used the rsync source code to create the rsync .NET version, I
think that you may be legally required to keep the software licensed
under the GPL if you distribute it.

If you only used the rsync algorithms and interfaces to create the
port, then you should be able to license the software any way you
wish.

But IANAL.
