My current experience with Nhibernate is that bug get fix pretty quickly once you report it whether it include the Linq provider or not.
With that said I think it's a chicken and egg problem. I agree with Kakone, most people who need/want a solid LINQ provider probably already look else where. Without the mass user adoption, bug won't get discovered/reported, hence slower improvement cycle. The good thing is that it's slowly getting better, I see noticeable improvement at every cycle... but until we reach a certain threshold of adoption the LINQ provider won't be ready for production until another year or two... Of course that's just speculation on my part and I hope I am wrong... On Tue, Dec 14, 2010 at 8:29 AM, Kakone <[email protected]> wrote: > "it seems to be enough stable"...
