Hello all, Me and my friend Oguz want to start a new project about NHibernate Fluent Mapping. If we show some progress and reach to a point where we let people use, the project can become part of Core or Contrib if other committers want.
There is one project on fluent mapping called Fluent NHibernate which does its job well, but it creates XML behind the scenes, which I don't like I have committer access so when needed I can extend the core according to needs. Currently Configuration & Mappings depends on XML which is not a good idea and needs improvement. The extension points will also allow other ways of mapping including DSLs. Now it comes to the questions: Do you think it would be beneficial to the community, or are we just duplicating things. I will talk with Fluent NH Team to see how they can help, and how we can help. Do you like how NH Fluent handles mapping, in other words, inheritance, or do you prefer real fluent interfaces? Thanks all. -- Tuna Toksöz Typos included to enhance the readers attention!
