Re: [NMock2-Dev] Equality of lists and other collections

[Nat P. <nat...@gm...>]

Good point.  At the moment I think ICollection is only inherited by
IList but if .NET ever does support sets then sets would probably
implement ICollection as well.   It's probably best to play safe and
only support IList, not ICollection.
