[Mono-list] Controlling WCF Soap serialization in 2.8 - bug?

[Atsushi Eno]

The original post on nabble does not somehow transferred to this list.

svcutil and wsdl importer got a couple of fixes, so this exact error 
does not show up on git master.

Though this brings another kind of error. That sounds like a bug, but 
since the wsdl and schema sets are too huge to investigate, I'd like to 
ask for a bug report with isolated small repro schema and code, and wait 
for that.

For the one from the original post, XmlSerializerFormatAttribute won't 
work (not implemented this minor stuff yet) and hence 
XmlElementAttribute won't work either.
