Where do I checkout the code from? http://ayende.com/2647/rhino-etl-providing-answers#comment6http://ayende.com/2647/rhino-etl-providing-answers#comment6Sat, 21 Jul 2007 11:31:14 GMTYou're right on the spot on the other OSS alternatives: most are either too visually oriented or they are overusing XML (*cough*Java*cough*). Heck, if you can come up with a proper DSL for ETL, I don't see any reason to build a designer. A scaffolding tool would probably be helpful, but you shouldn't need more than that to be productive. http://ayende.com/2647/rhino-etl-providing-answers#comment5http://ayende.com/2647/rhino-etl-providing-answers#comment5Sat, 21 Jul 2007 10:40:54 GMTHi Ayende We should start a "Developer's Idol" programme. I vote for you for sure ;-) ! I'm really amazed by your early progresses and you are saving my day, because, now I can avoid SSIS and hack my way into my new project. Regarding Ruby, it will be good to talk about it again when IronRuby will be mature enough. I am eagerly waiting for it. For the time being, I am learning IronPython and it's a great scripting language for .Net. What about a Statue for Ayende ;-) (just joking) ? Keep the good work, R.

I mean, the pretty visual boxes look so nice...if they only worked. http://ayende.com/2647/rhino-etl-providing-answers#comment2http://ayende.com/2647/rhino-etl-providing-answers#comment2Fri, 20 Jul 2007 23:41:30 GMTYeah! Go Ayende Go! So, who's writing the designer? http://ayende.com/2647/rhino-etl-providing-answers#comment1http://ayende.com/2647/rhino-etl-providing-answers#comment1Fri, 20 Jul 2007 23:20:28 GMT
