Sorry, you're 100% right and I agree with you on that.

however http://www.npgsql.org/ is not yet a "first class" driver.

Notice the tags on there, "Stable" release is inaccessible and unstable has warnings (also it is labelled as unstable)

I would be less likely to feel secure in trusting the unstable release of a third party driver even though I know that the .NET team mentioned NPG during the last community standup. My understanding was that they said members of the Entity Framework team are working with the team at NPG.

I do think that it will be usable very soon, but the SQLServer drivers are working now.



I have some experience experimenting with NPGSQL and it was definitely not production ready; huge performance problems and general issues abound.

I wish someone would step up and write a better .net postgres driver.
