Limited Dynamic Data resources and discussion

Question

User-1012326966 posted

Why is there so little discussion, blogging, samples and videos on dynamicdata since its release?  There are scores of such things for non-released things like MVC.

Is dynamic data not progressing?   The futures project is limited and seemingly stalled.  There is very little discussion that I can find on compex data relationships like many to many.

I am VERY interested in using dynamic data, and would love to incorporate MVC, but until it is released out of Preview mode, I cannot make the case for it in my organization.

However, with such little focus on the dynamicdata in the asp.net community, I am concerned about its future.  Please advise.  Thanks.

Have a look at my blog it's only about DD and expanding on the standard release which is what the Futures is about also see the Road Map.

Hope this helps [:D]

Thanks Steve, I have noted your blog.

However, I daily review the asp.net site and it seems like MVC dominates the discussion on the main page and you hardly ever see anything on dynamicdata techniques.  So I was wondering about the importance of dynamicdata in the asp.net features?

We are in the processing of adding 20 Dynamic Data videos to the ASP.NET website. We are definately moving forward with Dynamic Data, one reason you have seen the futures stall out a little is because we are working on getting things from futures and other changes that require core ASP.NET changes into the next version of the .NET framework. You also see more traffic on the MVC side of the house because they are not yet in RTM and releasing new CTP's on a regular basis. We should have a new release of stuff sometime in the PDC timeframe. That is all I can say now. :-) But we have some REALLY cool stuff coming.
