MethodAccessException reported from CF 2.0

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Run the QuickStart project under CF 2.0 (tweaking the async TcpListener to 
sync); the List<T>.Sort method reports MethodAccessException when looking 
at Contact/Customer.

This turns out to be a curiosity of the CF 2.0 security model when using 
generics 
with internal classes from other assemblies (i.e. where the T is private to the 
generic code). Even if no nasty access is attempted, the code (especially 
List<T>.Sort) can break horribly.

Fix: mark your data classes as public, not internal.
