How long is it going to be before .NET has components for Analysis Services?
This is just a rant on .NET with OLAP. I am currently working on a project with OLAP and .NET for my work. The pain in the butt side is getting the two to talk. I am currently combining OLEDB.Net and so of my own XML parsing to create a usable document for displaying results. I chose this route so I didnt have to Interop with ADO.old because I believe in moving into the future without looking back :). So the overall gist of this is, when are we going to see SqlAnalysisServiceAdapter?

This just came up on the latest .NET Rocks Episode. The suggestion was to use the Xml for Analysis SDK via WebServices for now (WSDL files here). No time frame given yet, but lots of very cool .NET stuff for SQL Server is coming with the Yukon release.
