abNORM / News: Recent posts

Maybe not the end?

Looking at the downloads it seems that people are still finding this somewhat useful.

If I find time, the next step would be to make it all compatible with MONO. I'm primarily focused on Ingres so I'm also having thoughts of dropping support for other databases (unless there's a volunteer for maintaining this).

I've stopped working on abNORM for a while now because frankly I can't think of any useful feature to add (except adding support for more databases which is getting a bit boring) and I didn't experience any bugs for ages now.

Then came this cool thing along that is called Linq. So I'm contributing Ingres Support to the DbLinq project. If you want to check it out, have a look at
