I'm still doing heavy use of AR (.NET2 Apps, using version Castle RC3/NH 1.2 still) but with ARMediators wrapped inside the Repository pattern, and now that finally the apps are being migrated to .NET4 it is time to make a decision, on how to evolve this persistence 'layer' scattered over many plugins.
I was thinking of taking the easy, lazy, route of just migrating to a a newer NH+AR, but as this sun-setting discussion is taking place, I think I'll have to do the full port to a newer NH and its new mapping options, if time allows... Anyway, I'm OK with sun-setting AR, as I can keep using that ancient version until we evaluate our options to have the system ported in a few moths to run also on Unix (Linux would be a bit easier, through Mono, but we are talking of old *nix here which may mean that we'll need to migrate to Java, ARGH!!!).
