Just thought I would let you know that your "Project Track" link seems to be
busted...

Subject: [DOTNET-PRODUCTS] MySQL ADO.Net provider release


This is an announcement of the latest release of ByteFX.Data, a set of open
source data providers for MySQL and PostgreSQL.

Binaries and source can be downloaded from
http://www.sourcforge.net/projects/mysqlnet.

Here is the changelog entry for this version:
* MySQLCommandBuilder now implemented
* Transaction support now implemented (not all table types support this)
* GetSchemaTable fixed to not use xsd (for Mono)
* Driver is now Mono-compatible!!
* TIME data type now supported
* More work to improve Timestamp data type handling
* Changed signatures of all classes to match corresponding SqlClient classes

Three packages are available for download.
Mono compiled assembly
VS.Net compiled assembly
Sources

If anyone who uses MySQL could try this provider out, I would greatly
appreciate any feedback on bugs, features requested, kudos, complaints.
Anything really!

Also, a PostgreSQL provider is underway but just started so not really
useable yet.

Thanks for reading this and taking a look.

Enjoy!
