I like the idea of having a guide for building Data access layer. I got a litle confuse because you are just saying that the app uses the MVC. From what I know MVC is a UI pattern, so from my perspective you will need a BL down from the UI pattern and below the DACL. Same hint for Astoria Stuff... if I use it? where my BL will be placed?

Best Regards

Thanks Harry, you're right and I'll be sure to fix that right away. Thanks.

Chester, thanks for your comment. I should have suspected this would be an FAQ and cut it off at the pass. Because I'd like to share our rationale, I'll do so in a separate post than here in the comments (so it's easier to refer to later).

To Don: Seems like an interesting project, will go onto the never ending list of things I should be reading :) (Just working my way through Code Complete 2 at the moment) You mentioned an ASP.NET MVP app where I think you meant MVC?

To Chester: These days you have the option to setup a VPC image and install it into there for testing purposes, but yes I agree they should do a vs2008 project if this is only released in vs2010.

For most developers, their IDEs are still in VS 2008 or under. Putting Data Access Guidance under VS 2010 beta means you don't want almost all of us to take a look at it. No serious developer would install beta on the working station.

Thanks,
