Ok I read the background. But seriously if you want anybody to take NHibernate seriously then don't be some desperate to release things and announce in big capital letters.

I'm a big fan of NHibernate but unfortunately I can't get it integrated here into my company because I get the following criticism from my co-workers:

1) NHibernate's query language is too complex and we don't have the time to learn it.
2) The documentation is pitiful at best.
3) We have too tightly integrated business logic in POCO's and rewriting it in NHibernate will cost too much time and our client doesn't understand why he has to pay for the rewrite.
4) It's not "Microsoft Standard" (I hate that excuse) and we don't use "Open Sauce"

Getting desperate and CAPTALIZING stuff will definitely not get sceptics on board.

Just my 2 cents.

What's with all the capital letters? I really don't understand this post or the significance of it. Why all the shouting? Is somebody desperate here?

"Are you going the way of the Dinosaur???"

No.

I dunno. This blog post just doesn't seem to have any substance to it.

Yes but how much of it is from people who want it. I think it will achieve critical mass when it is downloaded by 1.5 million people per day who really want to use it.

Damn it's fast!

It's not my post but I found it and posted it here. I hope the original author doesn't mind.

Arg! I'm going nuts! When is the MVC framework going to be released!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed.

Because if you ask me, Microsoft Surface seems to use Silverlight (or XAML or whatever they call it).

It's good articles like this that set DotNetKicks apart from the rest. Keep em coming!

Sorry for being ignorant but... can anyone explain to me what DSL stands for and why everybody is so excited about it?
