Has there been any thoughts on moving BugNET to an ORM for data access?

 Not lately. The data access was redone at the start of version 0.8 and is stable and works pretty well.  I would rather not make such a large change to the code and work on other features right now.

I use Linq to SQL right now and myself and our team love it. We have run into a bunch of road blocks but so far we haven't found anything we haven't been able to work around and the benefits of having strongly typed queries that can be composed  and tinkered with at run-time is great. Of course it only targets SQL Server unfortunately but for our use this isn't an issue.

If you end up going down the Linq to SQL route at some point in the future and are interested in some techniques that can let you create dynamic yet strongly typed queries let me know. I think I have some techniques that I'm having a lot of success with that it seems nobody else knows about. Personally if I had to pick a new ORM for a new project I would probably look more into Entity Framework instead because some of the issues with Linq to SQL that we have to hack around with have already been addressed in EF 4.0 and I understand that EF actually is made to support different databases.
