Does this mean we should continue to ignore the current crop of data access technologies such as LINQ that are constantly hyped by your commissar shills -- i mean MVPs? Is Microsoft only now getting serious about integrating a long term Data Access/ORM stack into the .net framework or are they already forming the team for the next technology that will replace the entity framework while simultaneously cheer leading and 'building' it's team?Anonymous

I wonder how long people will confuse LINQ with being an ORM or data access? LINQ is a query language which operated across a wide variey of data sources including in memory objects. The introduction of a new ORM does not make LINQ obsolete. It's similar to saying that a new SQL database engine does away with SQL. No, MySQL, SQL Server, Oracle & SQLite all use SQL (at least a certain standard subset).
