I thought a quick status update of BugNET 0.7.0 would be in order since it has been under development for some time now. There are two major components to address first and any outstanding bugs but after these are completed it is looking like we will be able to release the first public version of 0.7.0.
The two outstanding areas to work on are:
- Windows Authentication
- Upgrade Scripts
The latter being the most tricky there has been a number of database changes that will need to be addressed in the upgrade scripts while retaining integrity with previous data.
I urge anyone that is using the latest source to report any issues that you find so that they may be addressed in the next few weeks.

Re: BugNET 0.7.0 Update
There are some great utilities out there for comparing versions of a database and automatically creating a SQL Change Script for migrating from one version to the other.
Try either SqlCompare or SqlDelta as a good starting point.

Re: BugNET 0.7.0 Update
I agree, I use SQL Compare by Red Gate and find it totally invaluable. In fact if you send me the before and after databases I'll run it through SQL Compare for you - it only takes 2 minutes :)
One caveat as that it does not update your data. You would have to use Red Gates Data Compare for that (and I don't have a license for that).

Thank you for the offer, I may call upon you assistance in this area once we are ready to tackle the scripts.

Re: BugNET 0.7.0 Update
I've also used the RedGate bundle as well - it's great - but, alas, that was at a previous employer...
Should I have mentioned that I don't work for any of the companies that make the products I mentioned?
That being said, all products mentioned have a free evaluation period.
SQLDelta has included in it the Data comparison facility included in the base product.
