I'm a huge supporter of LINQ because i like the idea of deferred execution, the functional programming style of queries in code, and the infinite possibilities of LINQ to . I hope some of the cool tools that LINQ to SQL has needs expanded to the other data sources (Ole and Odbc off the top of my head) but what about LINQ to soap services? Anyhow, keep up the great discussions... it helps other people 'get it' and hopefully increases the chance of buy in when something like this would be somethign that helps the bottom line.

I ve seen a few samples in msdn and TBH i m not impressed. I m perhaps a bit biased towards NH because i really like it and I think it makes you a better dev however I just cant see how this is any good. This is the first comparision or comment I find from someone that actually uses NH and that its positive(?) i would really like to undestand why Thanks A Hi there: After reading your post is not really clear to me whats the advantage of the entity framework, am i wrong to say that the entity framework basically means you have to write everything yourself? why go to all that trouble? or am I been overly simplistic?

I think it's an incredible vision. One we've had to work toward by writing our own software. I'd much rather you guys write it! :) There was a genuine feeling of "trying to understand" despite lots of passion coming from all angles. What made the event cool and a happening (for me) was that, while there was lots of talking going on, there was also an appropriate measure of listening. I think that's the rare and special thing, especially when there's emotional investments in a particular technology one is working with or working on (as the case may be). Yeah!

When we're building software and you get a chance run into a group of people who get the vision, and also get some of the hurdles we have to jump; you really listen to the feedback. Thanks! Don't let up. -Brian David,
