Xml Serialization of Class implementing IList Problem

Hi,

if I create a class that implements the List interface then instances of it
will be serialized as "ArrayOfType" and not as "ClassName", which also means
that any public members will not be serialized.

For example:

Public Class Test

Public Name as String = "Some"

End Class

will be serialized (more or less) to:

<Test>

<Name>Some</Name>

</Test>

If I add the IList Interface for example:

Public Class Test

Implements IList(Of String)

Public Name as String = "Some"
