Downgrade from SP 2010 Enterprise to SP 2010 Standard

At my work we work with a pre-setup development environment, which always includes SharePoint Enterprise edition. But if you have a customer working with the Standard edition, you might be in some trouble during deployment.
To prevent trouble, you can downgrade your Enterprise installation by de-activating and de-installing some features. Below follows a small script to remove the Enterprise features from your environment. Replace the http://url with the correct url.

There's no other easy way in the GUI.
Use stsadm or PowerShell(Disable-SPFeature FeatureFolderName -Url http://url) to disable these features:

stsadm -o deactivatefeature -force -url http://url -name PremiumSite
stsadm -o deactivatefeature -force -url http://url -name BizAppsSiteTemplates
stsadm -o deactivatefeature -force -url http://url -name BizAppsCTypes
stsadm -o deactivatefeature -force -url http://url -name IPFSSiteFeatures
stsadm -o deactivatefeature -force -url http://url -name BizAppsFields
stsadm -o deactivatefeature -force -url http://url -name ExcelServerSite
stsadm -o deactivatefeature -force -url http://url -name BizAppsListTemplates
stsadm -o deactivatefeature -force -url http://url -name PremiumWeb
stsadm -o deactivatefeature -force -url http://url -name ReportListTemplate
stsadm -o deactivatefeature -force -url http://url -name DataConnectionLibrary
stsadm -o deactivatefeature -force -url http://url -name IPFSWebFeatures
stsadm -o uninstallfeature -force -name PremiumSite
stsadm -o uninstallfeature -force -name BizAppsSiteTemplates
stsadm -o uninstallfeature -force -name BizAppsCTypes
stsadm -o uninstallfeature -force -name IPFSSiteFeatures
stsadm -o uninstallfeature -force -name BizAppsFields
stsadm -o uninstallfeature -force -name ExcelServerSite
stsadm -o uninstallfeature -force -name BizAppsListTemplates
stsadm -o uninstallfeature -force -name PremiumWeb
stsadm -o uninstallfeature -force -name ReportListTemplate
stsadm -o uninstallfeature -force -name DataConnectionLibrary
stsadm -o uninstallfeature -force -name IPFSWebFeatures

To activate the Enterprise features again, you can use the following script:

stsadm -o installfeature -name PremiumSite
stsadm -o installfeature -name PremiumWeb
stsadm -o installfeature -name BizAppsSiteTemplates
stsadm -o installfeature -name BizAppsCTypes
stsadm -o installfeature -name IPFSSiteFeatures
stsadm -o installfeature -name BizAppsFields
stsadm -o installfeature -name ExcelServerSite
stsadm -o installfeature -name BizAppsListTemplates
stsadm -o installfeature -name ReportListTemplate
stsadm -o installfeature -name DataConnectionLibrary
stsadm -o installfeature -name IPFSWebFeatures
stsadm -o activatefeature -url http://url -name PremiumSite
stsadm -o activatefeature -url http://url -name PremiumWeb

How to store the sharepoint List or List Item within the recycle bin of the site while deleting it programmatically ?

Whenever we delete a sharepoint list or list item from the User Interface it get stored within the recycle bin of the site. But when we delete it programmatically it get's deleted permanently. So what we can do to store the List or List Item within the recycle bin while deleting it programmatically ? Generally we use the list.Delete() or item.Delete() method to delete the list or item. Instead of using the Delete() method we can use the Recycle() method i.e list.Recycle() or item.Recycle(). This will store the item within the recycle bin.
