framework 2.0?

These two features have been included in every version of .NET 2.0 I
have ever seen. Why wouldn't they be included in the final version?

Maybe a more useful question would be "will they be supported by <insert
language of choice here>", which might not be that easy to answer. Is
that what you wanted to ask?

Is that included in csharp or only if you use fsharp as you programming
language?

f# has nothing to do with support for Generics or anonymous methods.
Generics are a feature of .NET and may be implemented by any of the
languages that support .NET (I don't know if or when MS want to make
that a requirement). In .NET languages from MS (the standard ones, not
experimental stuff like f#), Generics are supported by C# and VB.NET, at
least (not sure if there may be others).

Anonymous methods, on the other hand, are really a language feature,
AFAIK. C# has them and I think VB.NET doesn't, but I'm not sure about
other languages.
