Thanks to Contributors of WilsonORMapper v2.0

I want to give a very special thanks to several significant contributions from subscribers for the just released WilsonORMapper Version 2.0:

1) Ken Muse participated in lengthy design discussions, gave lots of sample code, and helped with a lot of testing for the major new features of Recursive Persistence and Cascading Deletes.  We ended up staying as close as possible once again to the MS ObjectSpaces syntax, including using an enum in PersistChanges and using the cascadeDelete mapping attribute for relations.

2) Allan Ritchie provided code that became GetCollection, for your own strongly typed custom collections, as well as single-handedly adding the feature for using embedded resources for the mappings.  The GetCollection method takes an extra parameter to allow you to specify your custom collection type, about as close as we can get to Generics without actually having them in .NET v1.1!

3) Jason Mesches, one of Kevin McNeish's developers at Oakleaf Enterprises, wrote the OPath converter that is now available in the QueryHelper's GetExpression method. Kevin also has Rick Strahl and John Miller adding support for the WilsonORMapper to his Mere Mortal's Framework -- so if you need a complete framework to get up and running quickly, I strongly recommend theirs.

4) Jerry Shea added some support for class hierarchies and simple mapping inheritance, as well as making the ObjectHolder's InnerObject property settable.

5) Tim Byng helped me to add support for optional field default null-values, again staying close to the syntax MS ObjectSpaces, back in v1.1.

Thanks to you all, Paul Wilson
