Welcome to the LinqToSQL2 wiki!

This wiki contains design decisions on the work done on the code base which was forked from Linq to Sql in the .NET reference source. Furthermore it contains documentation on the new features added to the API / runtime / mapping system. This project is a work in progress and new documentation will be added when new features / code are available.
