Right back at you, Rahul. Rainbow rocks! If you do migrate to iBATIS, be sure to let us know!
People are always looking for real-world examples, and it would be great to point them your way. I'd especially love to see Rainbow running with other databases, like MySQL. One trick I've been using is to push query results into a DataTable, which work well with DataGrids and such. It is such a pity that plain-old Dictionaries don't work with more ASP.NET components :( -Ted.
