Re: Off loading the providers

I am thinking that it would have been better for the architecture of
the provider pattern to be implemented with interfaces instead of
abstract classes in order to have better capability for location
transparency. Maybe I am missing something about the remoting mechanism
or maybe that is where the problem is and perhaps WCF solves this, but
for now I am disappointed since I think this would have been easy to
off load with COM, where an interface is an interface is an interface
wherever the 80X86 bits may lie. Kind of a drag that I have to be
someone's descendent to be able to telecommute as opposed to having
to work in person.
Is probably a better topic for the remoting group now.
