The future of LINQ To SQL and showing some support.

Recently Ian Cooper posted about his fear that the long term prospects of LINQ To SQL may be diminished and damaged by the volume of effort going into the EF and the fact that the Data Programmability Team are now charged with the future of both products (a race for which would see L2S loose).

I suggested a bumper sticker to help promote the need to maintain and grow LINQ To SQL where it is already providing a real alternative to those who want to practice OO, POCO, PI, strategies commonly used in TDD / DDD circles. The title of the quest to ensure support and growth of LINQ To SQL carries the title "LINQ 2 SQL - Live long and Prosper".

So thanks to my colleague Tim Alford here it is:
