Linq To entities (Beta 1)

Hello,
I tried to connect to MySQL using Linq to Entities, congratulations that you support also this early stage product.

unfortunatelly I got the exception

'Method 'CreateDbCommandDefinition' in type 'CoreLab.MySql.Entity.MySqlEntityProviderServices' from assembly 'CoreLab.MySql.Entity, Version=4.20.12.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=09af7300eec23701' does not have an implementation.'

Obviously that's not your fault, the problem that occure is that you are supporting CTP, while I'm working with Beta 1 of Linq to entity.
I'm not an expert, but it seems to be just renaming problem (as far as I saw in reflector).

DO you have any estimation when this will be fixed? is there any road map or nightbuilds (early acces program withou guarantage) , or just an estimation what and when approx happend?

Thanks

What version of Visual Studio do you have?

Orcas Beta 2,
the same occured in Team suit as well as in Professional.

Don't think it's related to the VS.NET at all - see the reflector:

MySqlEntityProviderServices implements DbProviderServices,
the DbProviderServices have abstract CreateDBCommandDefinition method. But the MySqlEntityProviderServices overrides the CreateCommandDefinition method (with the same parameters) - so I think MS renamed it in Linq to Entity Beta. Unfortunatelly your class is internal 9 what makes sence ) - so I can't create my own implementation that will swalow everythink to your one.

So far we have supported only Orcas Beta 1.
We are working on supporting second beta as well.
