[Mono-dev] DateTime Serialization

Hi,

while trying to access a Mono WCF service with a MS.NET client I 
encountered issues with DateTime (de)serialization: it seems mono 
serializes only the ticks and not the DateTimeKind info (UTC, Local, 
Unspecified).

See bug 660424 for description and proposed fixed. (I posted it as WCF 
bug initially but now I think it's rather System.XML)

A word of caution: the proposed fix is not tested, just from looking at 
the code. (I can't build the mono class libs on my windows machine yet)

Maybe bug 648252 is related to this one as well.

Cheers,
  Karsten
