+Summary: DATASET / DATATABLE INCORRECTLY DESERIALIZED
+
+Description of Problem:
+Some objects, such as DataSet and DataTable, are not deserialized 
+correctly with BinaryFormatter or SoapBinaryFormatter.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Serialize a DataSet or DataTable object to a file or network stream.
+2. Deserialized the object from the stream.
+
+Actual Results:
+1. For DataTable, no data row deserialized (Rows.Count = 0).
+  No matter the object was serialized with Microsoft or MONO Formatters.
+2. For DataSet, if the object was serialized with Microsoft .NET 
+Formatters and deserialized with MONO Formatters, an exeption occurs 
+(There's no 'DataSetName' element).
+
+Expected Results:
+Since the .NET framework should be according to a unique standard and 
+compatible, any object serialized with any class library should be 
+deserialized smoothly and without any data loss.
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Every time.
+
+Additional Information:
+The bug makes me unable to develop a server application on linux running 
+MONO and a client application on windows running MS .NET.
