+Summary: [2.0] BinaryFormatter always (?) emits full assembly name
+
+While writing some unit tests to ensure binary serialization compatibility 
+with MS, I noticed that on the 2.0 profile MS emits the full assembly name 
+(including version, culture and public key token) even if 
+BinaryFormatter.AssemblyFormat is FormatterAssemblyStyle.Simple.
+
+I did a little search on this topic and came up with this:

+I'll need to write some tests / repros from this as it's not yet clear if 
+this only affects strongnamed assemblies.
