[Francisco Figueiredo Jr.]

Hi, all!!

The Npgsql Development Team is proud to announce the Npgsql2 2.0.11 release!

Npgsql is a .Net Data provider written 100% in C# which allows .net
programs to talk to postgresql backends. Npgsql is licensed under BSD.
More info can be obtained from http://www.npgsql.org

This release is a minor bug fix for the stable 2.0 series.

The biggest highlights are:

 Fix for bytea handling with Postgresql 9.0.


And many bug fixes:

 Fixed bugs:

[#1010863] GroupBy Expression with two or more parameters
creates a sql error
[#1010860] [EF, 2.0.10.0] Invalid query is generated
Added fix to return CLR type when working with NpgsqlInet and
IPAddress types in NpgsqlDataReader.GetValue(). See
http://pgfoundry.org/forum/message.php?msg_id=1006360 for more info
about that.
[#1010921] Data corrupted transferring bytea data from
PostgreSQL 9 server. Thanks Mathieu Fenniak for patch. See
http://pgfoundry.org/pipermail/npgsql-devel/2010-January/001057.html.
This patch should have been applied a long time ago. It was my fault
(Francisco) Sorry for that :(
