The XML Serialization architecture in Whidbey stays just about the same.
IXmlSerializable is still undocumented/unsupported. The real revolution will
be when Indigo comes along in Orca at which point the entire serialization
architecture gets a bit of an overhaul and it all becomes the ISerializable
with a true IFormatter implementation (XmlFormatter) which uses the
XmlInfoset. You can check out some more details about it in the notes I took
at the PDC[1].
