But, there&#39;s people suggesting signatories of this petition are wackos or on the fringe. Do yourself a favour and read the petition .

But then again, no ORM is suitable for building large and complex projects. The technology is fundamentally inappropriate for database driven solutions in the same way that object-orientation is.</p> <p>So the fact that it doesn&#39;t give a clean separation of data from code, or that it doesn&#39;t handle lazy loading that well, or any of these complex project issues don&#39;t matter. For smaller and simpler projects it will be just fine.</p> <p>I&#39;d give it a vote of no confidence, but no more than any other ORM solution.</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://msmvps.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=1637747" width="1" height="1">http://msmvps.com/blogs/peterritchie/archive/2008/06/25/entity-framework-petition-of-vote-of-non-confidence.aspx#1637618Wed, 25 Jun 2008 17:42:37 GMTd67277c4-116b-43f1-b688-e9ef184ea916:1637618DotNetKicks.com<p>You&#39;ve been kicked (a good thing) - Trackback from DotNetKicks.com</p> <img src="http://msmvps.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=1637618" width="1" height="1">
