“includes fixes and SqlLite support by Douglas Six and Peter Magnusson” - grab it form the downloads page. Discuss on the newsgroup.

What’s coming next (in March)? A big refactoring by Pascal, which should move provider code into separate DLL. Also planned is partial support for vertical partitioning.

I am looking for volunteers are required to create a graphical SqlMetal tool, which would allow you to rename fields and change types, and control partitionaing and other mapping.

Good luck everyone!

What’s in it?

Work on large DBs, composite PKs, PostgreSql schemas, self-joins, bug fixes …

Orcas Beta2 (Visual Studio 2008) has been released. I like the VirtualPC image, allowing me to use it at work - but avoid the direct installation, which has installed .NetFramework2-SP1 on my machine, causing many .NET 2 apps to stop working.
For LINQ, there are some changes in Beta2: anonymous types are now immutable (except VB.net - read about the new keyword, ‘Key’), and as such the dynamically-compiled code under the hood needs to change. You can download the updated source code package from http://code.google.com/p/dblinq2007/
