The redistributable does not.
.NET 3.5 supports all of the .NET 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 2.0, 3.0 codebase (although some things may be changed up a bit, marked obsolete, etc…).
But if you install .NET 3.5 you will need to install .NET 1.1 to run an app compiled against that CLR.
However, .NET 2.0, 3.0, 3.5 all share the same CLR so you may be able to run .NET 2.0 apps w/ the 3.5 redist, I’d have to test it to be sure.
