We just finished up our 2007 Users Conference and I’d really like to thank David Sceppa and Jeffrey McManus for presenting at the conference.  David is a program manager on the ADO.Net team at Microsoft and I had more than one person come up to me and tell me that having a Microsoft rep at the sessions really indicated that we were serious about working with Microsoft tools and that Microsoft seemed very willing to help with that.  True indeed.

Also, I really appreciated Jeffrey being willing to jump in last minute and do a presentation for us.  He does alot of traveling and presenting so I know his time is precious.  Jeffrey also recently made available a tool he wrote for generating a set of classes for a given database schema.  He calls it Cgen and you can read his announcement about it here.  Keep up the good work, Jeffrey, and thanks!
