Npgsql2 Final Released!!

Hi, all! The Npgsql Development Team is proud to announce the Npgsql2 RTM! Npgsql is a .Net Data provider written 100% in C# which allows .net programs to talk to postgresql backends. Npgsql is licensed under BSD.

Although externally Npgsql2 doesn't seem very different of Npgsql1 regarding features, internally Npgsql2 had a lot of improvements which represents a much more stable product, more bugs fixed and many implemented methods. It is strongly advised that current users update from Npgsql1 to Npgsql2. Main features are: Support for .Net 2.0 and 3.5 Josh Cooley did a great job and added support for EntityFramework.
