re: Big Day Today: Object Relational Mappers (ORM) Comparison Day 1

I'm still listening in and viewing, but I've gotta toss you and all the guys that presented kudos, atta-boys, way to go, and all that.

I was live meeting in... and I thought it went well. Since I live 30 miles away and was working from home today, there's no way I could get over there. 1024X768 was a bit limiting, but pretty funny. How long ago was that the biggest you had?

There really wasn't enough time to get into each one, but who's got that kind of time? I thought all the presenters spoke well and hit the good points of each tool in the time they had. You may want to try doing a "deep dive" on a tool at a future meeting.

I've spent the last few months working with LinqToSQL. We (Chris Boyce and I work at Medtronic) had our own showdown with LinqToSQL and SubSonic. Both cool tools, we're rolling with LinqToSQL.

I've struggled to even post some blogs about it. I don't see how you guys find the time and the energy to whip out the presentations.

Great job thanks!

p.s. make it a yearly event and invite Scott Gu ;)

re: Expresso, A .NET Regular Expression Development tool you should not be without.

Joseph, what first-rate luck to find this.

Thanks very much for blogging about Expresso. It paid for itself in the first five minutes.

Not only is it a great way to design regular expressions (after all, who can remember RE syntax on the fly?), but it's a designer and tutorial all in one.

Nice going.

Your rules pages says: "We are looking for presenters for CSLA, LLBgen, nHibernate, LINQ, and any other ORM tool."

I guess you're trying to say LLBLGen Pro ;).

Anyway, looking at your requirements, I can generate the complete application with our web templates without coding a single line of code. Unfortunately, I'm far away in Europe, so nowhere near Arizona. I'll ask on our forum if someone wants to go on our behalf :)

While I appreciate ComponentOne for doing this I elected to skip getting these free bits because I didn't want to register on their web site just to get free stuff.
