Can I develop Web Parts for MOSS 2007 with .NET 3.5?

Currently I am developing Web Parts for MOSS 2007 using .NET 2.0 and deploying them to the GAC with WSPBuilder. I would like to move to .NET 3.5 to open up things like LINQ and WCF.

Is this possible and will there be any significant changes required to MOSS to support doing so?

Yes. I do it all the time.

Just make sure the target machine has .NET 3.5 and you're "good-to-go". (The same run-time can host .NET2-3.5 as they use the same underlying "engine".)

I haven't done it myself but Tobias Zimmergren posted a guide on his blog: http://www.zimmergren.net/archive/2008/09/22/how-to-get-up-and-running-with-net-3-5-in-your-sharepoint-environment.aspx
