I could not work out how to get a connection in the Server Explorer until I ran across your blog and noticed the comment about 6.3.3 supporting Visual Studio 2010 RTM. Anyway, our production code is using 6.2.x, but I am using 6.3.x on my development machines so I can use the server explorer and all the related designer tools. My question is, what is the time line for the 6.3.x to go GA? I assume it will end up becoming the 6.4.x release tree? Hi Reggie,

I finally discovered today that in order to use Visual Studio 2010 and the Entity Framework with MySQL, you really need the MySQL Connector/Net 6.3.x release. I could not work out how to get a connection in the Server Explorer until I ran across your blog and noticed the comment about 6.3.3 supporting Visual Studio 2010 RTM.

Anyway, our production code is using 6.2.x, but I am using 6.3.x on my development machines so I can use the server explorer and all the related designer tools.

My question is, what is the time line for the 6.3.x to go GA? I assume it will end up becoming the 6.4.x release tree?
