I just read an article that stated that the MBF has been rescheduled to be
released with Longhorn instead of shortly after Whidbey as was previously
planned. If this is true, and since it was recently stated that ObjectSpaces
was being removed from Whidbey and would be released with the MBF, does this
now mean that ObjectSpaces is now going to be unavailable until we see
Longhorn? Any information on this is greatly appreciated. -Scott

Come on!!!! Where did you read the article????? Link????

As of now, ObjectSpaces is part of Whidbey wave (available
soon after the Whidbey release). Of course that could
change. I would like to know where you heard differently.

Could they have been talking about WinFS which is based on
ObjectSpaces but won't be out until Longhorn?

Hi Dave,

Uhm, you might want to have a look here:
http://weblogs.asp.net/timbrookins/archive/2004/05/10/129124.aspx
It also has some links to related articles.
Frans (http://weblogs.asp.net/fbouma) already blogged about it.

No, it's MBF. I wondered on my weblog if this has consequences for the
release date of objectspaces, as there is no need to release it with whidbey
(I mean, if the tools based on it are released further down the road, it's
perhaps wise to not release it yet to be able to make changes if required).
Perhaps Scott turned that question into a non-question ;)

Thanks for the links guys and the clarification. I agree
that there is probably not too much pressure to release
ObjectSpaces before MBF. The only good news is that
Longhorn beta is only 11 months away.

See ObjectSpaces-WinFS API unification announcement at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/data/

ObjectSpaces Functionality to be Delivered with Longhorn
Developers who have been following the evolution of "ObjectSpaces" – a
technology effort building services supporting object representations of
data in relational databases – will be interested to know that these
efforts are being merged with the Windows code-named “Longhorn” object/data
technology “WinFS”. This decision was made after evaluating the overlapping
scenarios that each of these technologies delivered and firm feedback that
developers and architects need a consistent, long-lived API delivering this
functionality. More information will become available through MSDN for
developers and architects to plan and build solutions today using the .NET
Framework while planning for the exciting features of Windows code-named
"Longhorn".
